Sir Charles Tynte, 5th Baronet
Sir Charles Kemys Tynte, 5th Baronet (1710–1785), of Halswell House, near Bridgwater, Somerset and Cefn Mably, Glamorganshire, was a British politician. [1]
He was a younger son of Sir John Tynte, 2nd Baronet, MP. He added the name of Kemys before his own when he inherited Cefn Mably in 1735 from his uncle, Sir Charles Kemeys. In 1740 he succeeded his brother Sir John Tynte 4th Baronet to the Tynte baronetcy and to Halswell House in Somerset, where he considerably improved the gardens.
He was a Member (MP) of the Parliament of Great Britain for Monmouth Boroughs from 1745 to 1747 and for Somerset from 1747 to 1774.
He died in 1785. He had married Anne, daughter of the Rev. Thomas Busby of Addington, Buckinghamshire but left no children. The baronetcy became extinct and the Halswell estate passed to a niece, who took the name Kemeys Tynte and whose descendants regained the title of Baron Wharton.
