Historia
John Proby was born in Stamford, Lincolnshire, in 1720. He was educated at Westminster School and Jesus College, Cambridge. He was elected MP for Stamford in 1747 and later served as MP for Huntingdonshire (1754-1768). Proby also held several public offices, including a position as a lord of the Admiralty (1763-1765). Alongside his English political career, he was made Baron Carysfort in the Irish peerage in 1754 and was a member of the Irish privy council. Rumours of mistresses and debts overshadowed Lord Carysfort's later years and he died in France aged 51.
