Background

He was the second son of Sir John Bingham, 5th Baronet, and his wife Anne Vesey, daughter of Agmondesham Vesey.[2] In 1750, Bingham succeeded his older brother John as baronet.[3]

Career

Bingham was appointed High Sheriff of Mayo in 1756. He was elected as Member of Parliament for both Castlebar and County Mayo in 1761, and chose to sit for the latter.[4] He was returned to the Irish House of Commons until 1776,[4] when he was elevated to the Peerage of Ireland as Baron Lucan, of Castlebar in the County of Mayo.[5] As his title enabled him only to take a seat in the Irish House of Lords, Bingham was not restricted from entering the British House of Commons for Northampton in 1782, representing it until two years later.[6] In 1795, Bingham was further ennobled in the Peerage of Ireland as Earl of Lucan, of Castlebar in the County of Mayo.[7]
