Frederick Huth Jackson PC (1863–1921), was a British banker, and a partner of the merchant bank, Frederick Huth & Co, founded by his great-grandfather, Frederick Huth.

Early life

[edit | edit source]

He was the son of Thomas Hughes Jackson (1834–1930) and Hermine Meinertzhagen (1838–1897), and the grandson of Sir William Jackson, 1st Baronet. He was educated at Harrow School, and Balliol College, Oxford.[1]

Career

[edit | edit source]

He was a partner of the private bank, Frederick Huth & Co.

From 1918 to 1919, the Rt. Hon. Frederick Huth Jackson, of 64 Rutland Gate, SW was the High Sheriff of the County of London.[2]

Following the death of Jackson in 1921, Frederick Huth & Co was in an increasingly parlous state, and the Governor of the Bank of England pushed for it to be amalgamated with Konig Brothers, which duly happened in 1923.[3]
