Henry John Adeane
Henry John Adeane DL (18 June 1789 – 11 May 1847) was an English barrister and politician.[1]
Early life and education[edit]
Adeane was the second but first surviving son of Robert Jones Adeane of Babraham, Cambridgeshire, and Annabella Blake, daughter of Sir Patrick Blake, 1st Baronet, of Langham Hall, Suffolk. Although the Adeane family's alleged descent from the ancient noble Deyne or Dene family, of Wallingford, was included in their entry in Burke's Peerage, this was later omitted, as part of the company's endeavour to shed a reputation for inclusion of "apocryphal" family traditions, which were "expunged, erroneous particulars and incorrect descents discovered and omitted...".[2][3] He was the grandson of Gen. James Whorwood Adeane. He was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge.[1]
Career[edit]
Adeane became a member of Lincoln's Inn in 1810 and the Inner Temple in 1813. He was called to the bar in 1814.[1]
He was a Whig Member (MP) of the Parliament of the United Kingdom for Cambridgeshire 1830 to 1832.[1]
