How could he enter the House of Commons in 1790? He was only twenty, or perhaps even nineteen, years old. 1. Although Members had to be 21 to take their seats, it was quite frequently the case that sons of noble houses were elected to the House of Commons before this time and only took their seats on turning 21. The minimum age was also not strictly enforced and there are cases on record of active MPs in their teens. David | Talk17:02, 12 November 2005 (UTC) It was not illegal to sit in the commons even under age, what was illegal was to vote underage. Jenkinson removed this temptation, and first sat a day after his 21st birthday and voted on the Revenue Resolutions of 8 June 1791.JMAlter

I have read or heard somewhere that his mother was partly of Indian lineage. 1. I've taken the liberty of removing the short reference to Lord Liverpool and the A2 syllabus. If anyone wants to say that there has been a renewal of interest in him in recent years, that's fine; but to say that this, that or other is or isn't in the A2 syllabus is a very odd thing to find in an encyclopedia entry. Jenkinson's mother, Amelia Watts, was the daughter of the former Governor of Fort William in Bengal, William Watts and a well known Eurasian woman, already twice widowed. It was not uncommon for the members of the East Indian Company to marry women from where they worked. Racism had not reared its ugly head in this area JMAlter 1. 1.1. Lord Liverpool was the son of Lord Liverpool and Amelia Watts, who was the daughter of William Watts (one of Robert Clive's bagmen) and [Frances Johnson], who was the daughter of a chap named Croke and one Isabella Beizor. So I think it's fair to say he wasn't m...

Which did he attend? The article says Oxford, the category Cambridge. Timrollpickering01:03, 19 December 2006 (UTC) 1. 1.1. Oxford, LordHarris18:42, 21 February 2007 (UTC) Jenkinson entered Christ Church Oxford in the April of 1787. He was awarded a degree of MA on 19 April 1790. JMAlter 1. 1.1. 1.1.1. He was at Oxford between April 1787 and April 1790, having taken a few months out to perfect his French in Paris in 1789: so he must have claimed "privilege of nobility" as the eldest son of a Lord. That meant he did not have to attend lectures or take examinations, and could proceed directly to the MA after two years' residence, without taking the BA on the way.

Ive just done a massive edit to the page and wikified it. Ive expanded the PM section from a couple of paragraphs to almost a dozen and have added subcategories for the important times of his ministry including the unrest at home, the corn laws, catholic emancip, end of the napolenic war and vienna congress. I have added some references, creating a new reference section and a new bibliography section. Also made edits to his early life and his late life, as well as a few other general edits.

It tells us everything about his time at university but his course --RaphaelBriand (talk) 23:30, 23 February 2008 (UTC) 1. He must have claimed "privilege of nobility" to acquire an MA as quickly as he did: so he was free to study as much or as little as he felt like.NRPanikker (talk) 19:39, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

It says he had a stroke and resigned as Prime Minister in 1827, and he died the following year. So, why does it state in the same paragraph that he died in office ?This is an error as he did not die in office- he died at home on 4th December 1828. JM AlterIt also says that the Hawkesbury River in New South Wales was named after him. This seems unlikely, as it was named in about 1789, which was before his political career.Lathamibird (talk) 06:18, 4 April 2016 (UTC) The river is probably named after Hawkesbury in Gloucestershire. JM Alter 1. I've just revised the early part of the article, part of which involved removing the words "in office" as clearly untrue. Harfarhs (talk) 21:19, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
