Sir John Perring , 1st Baronet ( 26 April 1765 - 30 January 1831 ) , FSA , of Membland in the parish of Holbeton , Devon , was a Member of Parliament and served as Lord Mayor of London in 1803 . He was a commissioner for exchequer bills and senior partner of the banking firm John Perring , Shaw , Barber & Co. , which having suffered in the Panic of 1825 , resulted in Perring losing his estates . On 3 October 1808 he was created a baronet , first of the Perring baronets of Membland , Devon . Origins Perring was described as " the son of a poor man " . He was born in about 1765 , the eldest son of Philip Perring ( died 1797 ) , of Denbury House , Church Street , Modbury in Devon , a serge maker , by his wife and cousin Susanna Legassick , daughter of Richard ( or Pascoe ) Legassick , apparently a wealthy cloth merchant at Modbury . The estate of Membland in the parish of Holbeton had been purchased by John Perring 's uncle Peter Perring from John Bulteel ( 1733-1801 ) , who had no further use for it having inherited the adjacent estate of Flete from his young nephew Courtenay Croker Bulteel of Flete and Lyneham , Yealmpton . Sir John Perring occupied Membland Hall in 1799 and from 1816 to 1827 . Civic career The Lord Mayor of London disembarking at the Royal Naval Hospital , Greenwich , on 18 May 1804 He was created an alderman in the City of London 's Broad Street ward on 13 January 1798 as a clothworker . He was subsequently elected one of the Sheriffs of the City of London in 1800 . On 9 November 1803 , Perring was proclaimed Lord Mayor of London . John Scott , 1st Earl of Eldon , in his capacity as Lord Chancellor informed King George III of Perring 's appointment , privately describing Perring as " in private life a person of worth , and , in public , of sound and loyal principles " . John Silvester , the Recorder of London referenced the spectre of Napoleon Bonaparte and the burgeoning Napoleonic Wars in his announcement of Perring 's appointment , stating that " At a time so awful as the present , when the country is threatened by an implacable and unprincipled enemy , it is of the last importance that the civic chair should be filled by a person in whom the greatest confidence can be placed " . Silvester ominously warned Perring that " The keys of the Metropolis are placed in your hands , at the moment when the enemy are at the gates " . The ball held later that day at Guild hall was opened with a minuet danced by Perring 's eldest daughter and the Spanish Ambassador . The Napoleonic wars and the threat of a French invasion had led to coastal batteries being built as fortifications along the south coast of England in the summer of 1803 . Perring was furious to find that a battery had been built on land that he owned at the mouth of the River Yealm in Devon , and wrote to the Secretary of War , Lord Hobart . Perring was eventually pacified by many letters from John Graves Simcoe , who was in charge of the construction of the defences . With the threat of invasion by the French still present , Perring presented the colours of the Corporation of London to the ten regiments of the London Loyal Infantry who assembled at Blackheath on 18 May 1804 . Perring was accompanied on the grand procession to Blackheath by the Earl of Harrington , Earl Amherst and Prince Frederick , Duke of York . Post-Mayoralty Pering was elected the Member of Parliament for New Romney at the 1806 general election , but lost his seat the following year at the 1807 general election . He was re-elected to parliament in three successive elections for the Hythe constituency from 1810 . In 1808 , Perring hosted a meeting of the ' friends of Lady Hamilton ' , a group of financiers organised by Abraham Goldsmid to raise money for Emma , Lady Hamilton , the mistress of Lord Nelson , following Nelson 's death . Perring attended the coronation of George IV in July 1821 . The satirist John Wolcot under his pseudonym of " Peter Pindar " , wrote an ' Instructive epistle ' to Perring , satirically proposing an ' Address of Thanks ' to Prime Minister Henry Addington for his ' Great and Upright Conduct when Prime Minister ' . A banker by trade , Perring headed the firm of John Perring , Shaw , Barber & Co . Perring 's bank issued bonds for the South American land speculator Gregor MacGregor . The suspension of payments by Perring 's bank in the subsequent Panic of 1825 , and its failure to satisfy creditors in the panic led Perring to lose his estates . Marriage and children In 1790 he married Elizabeth Cowell ( died 1811 ) , daughter of John Cowell of Stratford , Essex , by whom he had two sons and three daughters as follows : * Sir John Perring , 2nd Baronet ( 1794-1843 ) , eldest son and heir ; * Phillip Perring ; * Elizabeth Perring ; * Jane Perring ; * Laura Perring . Death He died at Burton Crescent in 1831 , aged 65 . |
