Sheriff of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire

This is an incomplete list of Sheriffs of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire from 1154 until the abolition of the office in 1965.[1]

Exceptionally, the two counties shared a single sheriff.[2] Sheriffs had a one year term of office, being appointed at a meeting of the privy council generally held in February or March and holding office until the similar meeting in the next year.[3] In 1648 it became the practice to rotate the office between inhabitants of Cambridgeshire proper, the Isle of Ely and Huntingdonshire. This was done in a three-year cycle, with an inhabitant of each area occupying the office in turn.[4]

This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.

Note: the years shown are the shrieval years. For example high sheriff appointed in March 1892 "for the year 1892" held office until March 1893.
