This #ConstituencyTuesday we're looking at Heytesbury. Sometimes a lack of sources can make it difficult to identify an MP. But #HistParl founder Josiah Wedgwood had perhaps attended one Christmas party too many when he suggested that Santa Claus was returned as MP for Heytesbury in 1491🎅 http://ow.ly/7nZD50CCe0R

As #HistParl joins Mastodon, some #introductions are in order.
We are a research project creating a comprehensive account of parliamentary politics in England, then the UK, from the thirteenth century to the present day. This project has been regarded as authoritative and well-researched. Here, we will share information on MPs, constituencies and the history of parliamentary #politics.
