Timeline
Sir Harry Braustyn Hylton Hylton-Foster (10 April 1905 – 2 September 1965), was a British Conservative Party politician who served as a Member of Parliament (MP) from 1950 until his death in 1965.
He was also the Speaker of the House of Commons for the final six years of his life.
Hylton-Foster was born in Surrey, his father was a barrister, and he was educated at Eton College before reading jurisprudence at Magdalen College, Oxford, in which he graduated with a first-class degree.
He was called to the bar by the Inner Temple in 1928, at which time he was also working as a legal secretary for Robert Finlay, 1st Viscount Finlay.
During the Second World War, Hylton-Foster served in the Royal Air Force volunteer reserve.
He also served as a deputy judge advocate, a military judge, in North Africa.
After the end of the war, he stood as the Conservative candidate for the Shipley seat in the 1945 general election, but was unsuccessful.
He was made King's Counsel in 1947.
However, in the 1950 election he succeeded in taking the York seat, a seat he held for the next two elections before standing for the safer seat for the Cities of London and Westminster in the 1959 election.
In 1954, Hylton-Foster was named the Solicitor-General for England, receiving the customary knighthood.
The fact that he was serving as solicitor general when he was named speaker of the House of Commons in 1959 was a source of some controversy, which was compounded by the fact that the opposition Labour Party felt they had been insufficiently consulted about the nomination.
However, once the controversy died down, Hylton-Foster proved to be a popular and respected speaker.
On 2 September 1965, Hylton-Foster collapsed while walking along Duke Street, St James's.
Attempts to resuscitate him were unsuccessful, and he was pronounced dead, aged 60, upon arrival at nearby St George's Hospital.
Audrey Hylton-Foster was given a life peerage as Baroness Hylton-Foster in his honour the same year, and was granted a life annuity by the Honourable Lady Hylton-Foster's Annuity Act 1965.
Hylton-Foster and his wife are buried together in the churchyard of St Barnabas Church, Ranmore Common, Surrey.
