Montgomeryshire
Before 1918 Montgomeryshire consisted of two constituencies: the county (or Montgomeryshire constituency); and the boroughs (this was the old Montgomery District, plus the contributary boroughs of Welshpool, Newtown, Llanfyllin, Llanidloes and Machynlleth). This borough constituency was in Unionist (Conservative) hands 1892-1906, and 1910-18, when it was occupied by Sir Pryce Pryce-Jones and then his son, Colonel Edward.
