Laurence Connolly

Laurence Connolly (1833 – 4 March 1908)[1] was an Irish entrepreneur and politician.

Connolly was born in Louth.[2] He worked for a time in his family's fruit merchant business in Dublin, before moving to Liverpool and setting up a similar business there. He later became a property developer.[3]

He became active in Liverpool politics as a representative of the Irish Nationalist Party, becoming a member of Liverpool City Council. He was a personal friend of the party leader, Charles Stewart Parnell, who persuaded him to run for Parliament in South Longford, for which he was elected in 1885.[4] In 1888, he resigned his seat, citing ill-health.[5] There are no recorded contributions by him in the House of Commons.

He died in New Brighton in 1908.[6]
