Lawrence Heyworth, Esq. M.P. for Derby, 1850. Creator: Unknown

Lawrence Heyworth, Esq. M.P. for Derby, 1850. Portrait from a photograph by Kilburn, of British merchant Lawrence Heyworth, of the firm Peter Heyworth & Sons, which produced goods for export to Spain and Portugal. Heyworth established a commission agency in Rio de Janeiro, and with his brothers set up a shipping and commission agency in Liverpool. He was one of the first to perceive the practicability and importance of railways, and was one of the earliest of their promoters, inducing his brother to join him in withdrawing his capital from commerce, and investing it in the iron ways. This he did, not only on the ground of profit, but of national advantage'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
