Charles John Greville
From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Charles John Greville (died 1836) was a British politician.
The younger brother of the Earl of Warwick, Greville served in the British Army, becoming a major-general. He was also appointed as a colonel in the 98th (Prince of Wales's) Regiment of Foot.[1]
At the 1812 UK general election, Greville was elected for the Tories in Warwick, serving until 1831. He stood again at the 1832 UK general election, winning the seat, but was unseated on petition. He was re-elected at the 1835 UK general election, this time for the new Conservative Party, but stood down in 1836 by accepting the Chiltern Hundreds. He died later in the year.[1]
