From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Edward Herbert Keeling (1888 – 23 November 1954) was a Conservative politician in the United Kingdom who served as a Member of Parliament (MP) from 1935 to 1954.
Keeling unsuccessfully contested the 1929 general election in the Southwark Central constituency, a safe seat for the Labour Party.
His next parliamentary candidacy was at the 1935 general election, when he was elected as MP for Twickenham. He held the seat until death in 1954, aged 66. The resulting by-election in January 1955 was won by the Conservative candidate, Gresham Cooke.
