Lee in 1880

Henry Lee (29 November 1817 – 27 December 1904) was a Manchester cotton manufacturer and Liberal Party politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1880 to 1885.

Henry Lee was the second son of Lee Lee of Chorley, Lancashire[1] and his wife Anne Cocksey, daughter of Joseph Cocksey.

Although his father left only a modest fortune, Henry Lee became a leader of Tootal, Broadhurst, Lee, one of the great textile firms of Lancashire.[1] He was a director of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce and of the Manchester and Salford Bank. He was a J.P. for Lancashire and the borough of Salford.[2]

Lee stood unsuccessfully for parliament in Salford at the 1874 general election.[3] At the 1880 general election he was elected as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Southampton,[4] and held the seat until his defeat[5] at the 1885 general election.[6] He contested Manchester North West at the 1886 election, without success.[7]

Lee died in 1904 at his home, Bedford Lodge, Broughton Park, Broughton and was buried in Weaste Cemetery.[8] He had married Hannah Dracup, daughter of John Dracup of Salford in 1846. His daughter Florence was the mother of Frank Lee Pyman.[9]
