Anthony Henley Henley, 3rd Baron Henley (12 April 1825 –

27 November 1898), also 1st Baron Northington in the Peerage of the United

Kingdom, was a British peer and Liberal Member of Parliament. Henley

was the son of Robert Henley, 2nd Baron

Henley. Lord Chancellor Robert

Henley, 1st Earl of Northington, was his great-grandfather. He

succeeded his father as third Baron Henley in 1841 but as this was an Irish peerage it did not entitle him to a seat in

the House of Lords. He was

instead elected to the House of Commons for Northampton in 1859, a seat he held until 1874. In 1885

the Northington title held by his great-grandfather was revived when he was

created Baron Northington, of Watford in the County of Northampton,

in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. This title gave him and the later Barons

an automatic seat in the House of Lords. He was appointed High Sheriff of

Northamptonshire for 1854. Lord Henley married, firstly, Julia

Emily Augusta, daughter of the Very Reverend John Peel, Dean of Worcester, in

1846. After her death in 1862 he married, secondly, Clara Campbell Lucy,

daughter of Joseph H. S. Jekyll, in 1870. He died in November 1898, aged 73,

and was succeeded in his titles by his eldest son Frederick. Lady Henley died

in 1922.
