Thomas John Wynn, 2nd Baron Newborough (3 April 1802 – 15 November 1832) was a British peer.

Plas Glynllifon - seat of the Lords Newborough

Background

Newborough was the elder son of Thomas Wynn, 1st Baron Newborough of Glynllifon, and Maria Stella Petronilla, daughter of Lorenzo Chiappini.[1]

He was educated at Rugby School and Christ Church, Oxford.[2]

Political career

Newborough succeeded his father in the barony in 1807. However, as this was an Irish peerage it did not entitle him to a seat in the House of Lords. He was instead elected to the House of Commons for Carnarvonshire in 1826, a seat he held until 1830.[3]

Personal life

Lord Newborough died in November 1832, aged 30. He was unmarried and was succeeded by his younger brother, Spencer Bulkeley Wynn, 3rd Baron Newborough.[1]
