From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Charles Dalrymple, 1st Baronet PC (15 October 1839-20 June 1916), was a Scottish Conservative politician.
Born Charles Fergusson, he was the second son of Sir Charles Dalrymple Fergusson, 5th Baronet, and grandson of Sir James Fergusson, 4th Baronet, and his wife Jean, daughter of David Dalrymple, Lord Hailes. Sir James Fergusson, 6th Baronet, was his elder brother. He assumed the surname of Dalrymple in lieu of Fergusson. He entered Parliament for Buteshire in 1868, a seat he held, with a brief interruption from April to July 1880, until 1885, and later represented Ipswich from 1886 to 1906. He was created a Baronet, of New Hailes in the County of Midlothian, in 1887, and sworn of the Privy Council, in 1905.
Dalrymple died in June 1916, aged 76.
