The statesman who was the father of Jane Cobden was associated with what major free trade campaign treaty?
Jane Cobden Emma Jane Catherine Cobden (28 April 1851 – 7 July 1947), known as Jane Cobden, was a British Liberal politician who was active in many radical causes. A daughter of the Victorian reformer and statesman Richard Cobden, she was an early proponent of women's rights, and in 1889 was one of two women elected to the inaugural London County Council. Her election was controversial; legal challenges to her eligibility hampered and eventually prevented her from serving as a councillor.
Theobald Butler (solicitor-general) Sir Theobald (Toby) Butler (1650-1720) was a leading barrister and politician in late seventeenth-century Ireland, who held office as Solicitor General for Ireland. He is mainly remembered for framing the articles of the Treaty of Limerick, and for his eloquent plea to the Irish House of Commons against the Popery Act of 1703, which allowed any Protestant son of a Roman Catholic landowner to debar his Catholic brothers from inheriting the family property. He was a much loved "character" in Dublin, and his great popularity shielded him from any harm which he might have suffered as a result of his religious beliefs.
