🎬 Alexander Cross — Hollywood Legend

Sir Alexander Cross, 1st Baronet (4 November 1847 – 13 February 1914), was a Scottish politician. He served as the Liberal Unionist MP for Glasgow Camlachie. In 1891 Cross was selected as the Unionist candidate. He was elected in 1892, but towards the end of his time as an MP in 1909 he defected to the Liberals over the free trade issue and lost his seat to the Liberal Unionists in January 1910. An obituary in The Times notes his political popularity was due to his efforts across two decades to reform the missive system of letting in Scotland which culminated in the House Letting and Rating (Scotland) Act, (1 & 2 Geo. 5. c. 53). On 5 July 1912 he was created a Baronet, of Marchbank Wood in the Parish of Kilpatrick Juxta in the County of Dumfries and of the City of Glasgow, this title was held by the Cross Baronets until it became extinct in 1963. At the time of his election in 1892, Cross was a partner in Alexander Cross & Sons, fertiliser manufacturers and seed merchants, and a director of the Scottish Mortgage and Land Investment Company of New Mexico.
