Abstract

This article reveals the engagement in British politics of a mixed ethnicity father and son, Henry Redhead Yorke (1772-1813) and Henry Galgacus Redhead Yorke (1802-1848). It shows how they were both committed to politics, but followed different trajectories, the former in extra-parliamentary politics and the latter as MP for York, 1841-1848.
