Talk:James Wriothesley, Lord Wriothesley

Record as shortest-lived MP?
From his birth and death dates I have deduced he only lived 19 years and 251 days (correct me if I miscounted), which makes him contender for the record of shortest lived MP in the then Parliament of England. I have not come across anyone proven to have been younger at time of death in earlier Parliaments or those since, and there will probably be none recorded since the establishment of civil birth and death certification in 1837 and the establishment in law of the parliamentary election age as 21.Cloptonson (talk) 06:46, 31 October 2013 (UTC)
