Henry Barnett, MP, JP, DL (14 February 1815 – 5 May 1896)[1] was an English banker, landowner, Conservative Party politician, and magistrate.[2]

He lived at Glympton Park, near Woodstock, and was the son of George Henry Barnett (1780–1871) by his marriage to Elizabeth Canning (1777–1838), a first cousin of the prime minister George Canning.

Henry Barnett's education was at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford, and in his youth he was a first-class cricketer.

He married Emily Ann Stratton on 18 September 1838; they had ten children, including the Reverend Herbert Walter Barnett who was Vicar of Bracknell 1886–1919.

He was an officer in the part-time Queen's Own Oxfordshire Hussars, being promoted to its command as Lieutenant-Colonel on 8 May 1866, and serving as its Honorary Colonel from 10 July 1878.[3]

He was a banker, Alderman of Oxfordshire, and at the 1865 general election was elected as the Member of Parliament for Woodstock,[2] holding the seat until he stood down from the House of Commons at the 1874 general election.[2]

Barnett played first-class cricket from 1836 to 1839, as a member of Marylebone Cricket Club, making four appearances and totalling 32 runs with a highest score of 17.[4]
