Robert Curzon (MP)

The Honourable Robert Curzon (13 February 1774 – 14 May 1863), was a British politician and long-standing Member of Parliament.

Curzon was the son of Assheton Curzon, 1st Viscount Curzon, by his second wife Dorothy, daughter of Sir Robert Grosvenor, 6th Baronet. Penn Curzon was his elder half-brother and Richard Curzon-Howe, 1st Earl Howe, his nephew. He was returned to parliament for Clitheroe in 1796 (succeeding his cousin Richard Erle-Drax-Grosvenor), a seat he held for the next 35 years.

Curzon married the Honourable Harriet Anne, eldest daughter of Cecil Bisshopp, 12th Baron Zouche, in 1808. The barony of Zouche fell into abeyance on Lord Zouche's death in 1828 but was called out of abeyance the following year in favour of Harriet Anne (who became known as the Baroness de la Zouche). Curzon died in May 1863, aged 89. Lady de la Zouche died in May 1870 and was succeeded ber her and Curzon's son, Robert, who had previously succeeded his father as Member of Parliament for Clitheroe in 1831.

Curzon owned a copy of the Third Folio of Shakespeare's works, containing what may be the only copy of a Portrait of Anne Hathaway, Shakespeare's wife.
