I can find no evidence to support the idea that Monckton was a Tory. He voted with the Whigs on most issues and was regarded by the Whig leaders as one of theirs. He stood jointly with Sheridan, the playwright, a well-known Whig, in 1780. I'll be posting a biography page for him soon and will alter the entry here at that point if no-one finds rational grounds for objection. Sjwells53 (talk) 16:29, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
NB - source work Parliamentary History of Staffordshire[edit]
Users more dedicated to the topic than me may be interested to know that I have found a commendably useful source in the Parliamentary History of Staffordshire, Volume I of which was published in 1917, by Josiah C. Wedgwood. I found Hugh Snel (murdered outside Stafford in 1380) from this work when I was trawling for MPs who had died by wartime active service, murder, suicide, in prison or executed etc. to add to the page Records of members of parliament of the United Kingdom.Cloptonson (talk) 19:46, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
