  Henry Brougham, 1st Baron Brougham and Vaux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He was born at Edinburgh, the eldest son of Henry Brougham, of Brougham Hall in Westmorland, and Eleanora, daughter of the Revd James Syme.
From that time, Brougham, in conjunction with Samuel Whitbread, became one of the Princess's chief advisers; he was attached to her through an indignant sense of the wrongs and insults inflicted upon her by her husband.
Brougham's first act was to move for leave to bring in a Bill to amend the representation of the people; but before the debate came on the government was defeated on another question; the Duke resigned, and Lord Grey was commanded by King William IV to form an administration.
