Henry Cole (Conservative politician)

Henry Arthur Cole (14 February 1809 2 July 1890[1]) was a British politician, cricketer and army officer.

He was the second son of John Cole, 2nd Earl of Enniskillen[2] and as a result did not inherit the title, but was permitted to preface his name with 'The Honourable'. He was elected as a Conservative Member of Parliament for Enniskillen on 18 June 1844, resigning on 31 March 1851 through the position of Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds. He was appointed High Sheriff of Fermanagh for 1854. [3]

He died in Willesden on 2 July 1890.
