  • John Studholme Brownrigg (17 March 1786 – 1853) was an English merchant and British Conservative Party politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1835 to 1847. The son of Lieut. John Studholme Brownrigg, of the 38th Foot, he married Elizabeth Rebecca Cassamaijor in 1812. An East India Company military Cadet of the 1800 season, he arrived in India in August 1801 and was commissioned Ensign in the 12th Bengal Native Infantry in November 1801, being promoted to Lieutenant in September 1803. He served under General Lake with the 12th N.I. in the Second Mahratta War, being present at the battle of Laswarree, on 1 November 1803, ‘as fierce a fight as was ever fought by men.’ (In 1851, he received the Army of India medal with clasp for Laswarree.) Brownrigg transferred to the 8th N.I., and was Adjutant and Quartermaster of that unit between 1805 and 1810. Served in the capture of Java in August 1811 but neither claimed nor received the medal for that campaign. Was Secretary to the Military Board from February 1813 until his resignation from the army in April 1820, having been promoted Captain in February 1815. After his HEIC army service, Brownrigg became a London merchant and partner in Charles Cockerill & Co. He was also a director of the Royal Bank of Australasia and deputy governor of the Australian Agricultural Company. Captain Brownrigg was an unsuccessful candidate for the borough of Boston in the 1832 general election but was elected in the 1835 election and re-elected in the 1837 and 1841 elections. Captain Brownrigg represented Boston as a Member of Parliament until his retirement in 1847. He died at home in Middlesex in September 1853. (en)
