Frederick Albert Bosanquet


Sir Frederick Albert Bosanquet, KC, JP (8 February 1837–2 November 1923) was the Common Serjeant of London, the second most senior permanent judge of the Central Criminal Court after the Recorder of London.

Frederick 'Bosey' Bosanquet was one of ten surviving children born to Samuel Richard Bosanquet, DL, JP (1800-1882), of Dingestow Court, Monmouthshire, the grandson of Samuel Bosanquet (1744-1806), Governor of the Bank of England from 1791 to 1793. The family were of Huguenot origin, the Bosanquets having fled to England from Lunel, Montpellier in France in 1685 following the revocation of the Edict of Nantes. His mother, Emily Courthope (died 1869), was a descendant of the Plantagenets.

Bosanquet was educated at Eton and at King's College, Cambridge, of which he was formerly a Fellow (BA 1860, MA 1863), and was called to the Bar at the Inner Temple in 1863. With George N. Darby he co-authored A Practical Treatise on the Statutes of Limitations in England and Ireland, his only published work, written in 1867.
