Price Hartstonge
Price Hartstonge (1692–1744) was an Anglo-Irish politician who sat in the Irish House of Commons as MP for Charleville from 1727–44. Background 

He was born at Presteigne in Radnorshire, the second and eldest surviving son of Sir Standish Hartstonge, 2nd Baronet and his wife Anne Price, daughter of a local judge. The Hartstonges, originally from Norfolk, had become substantial landowners in Ireland in the seventeenth century. Price's father Standish had been raised by his grandfather Sir Standish Hartstonge, 1st Baronet, Baron of the Exchequer in Ireland, who was then living in retirement in Hereford, but the marriage of Price's parents caused a bitter family feud, and in about 1695 young Standish took his family to live in Ireland. Price was educated at Kilkenny College and Trinity College, Dublin. Career
