Sir Theodore Brinckman, 1st Baronet

Sir Theodore Henry Lavington Brinckman, 1st Baronet (17 January 1798 – 9 February 1880)[1] was a British politician and baronet.

Born Theodore Broadhead, he was the son of Theodore Henry Broadhead and his wife Elizabeth Macdougall, daughter of William Gordon Macdougall.[2] In 1842, by Royal Licence, he and his brothers resumed the surname Brinckman,[3] which the family had carried before 1786 and their grandfather had changed.[4]

In 1821 he entered the British House of Commons in a by-election for Yarmouth, the same constituency his father has represented before and was a Member of Parliament until 1826.[5] On 30 September 1831, Brinckman was created a baronet, of Burton or Monk Bretton, in the County of York.[6]

He married firstly Hon. Charlotte Godolphin Osborne, only daughter of the 1st Baron Godolphin on 29 August 1829.[7] She died in 1838, and Brinckman married secondly Annabella Corbet, daughter of John Corbet on 18 February 1841.[8] He had five children by his first wife, a daughter and four sons.[8] They lived at St. Leonard's in Clewer near Windsor in Berkshire. Brinckman died, aged 82 and was succeeded in the baronetcy by his oldest son Theodore.[9]
