Moreton Frewen (8 May 1853 – 2 September 1924) was and entrepreneur, an Anglo-Irish writer on monetary reform, who served briefly as a Member of Parliament (MP). Early life Frewen was born the 8 May 1853 in England. He was the fifth son of Thomas Frewen (1811–1870), MP for South Leicestershire, and the third son of Helen Louisa (née Homan) Frewen (1821-1901). He was educated at Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he gained his BA in 1877. Career Frewen was a charming adventurer from an English landed gentry family in Leicestershire and Sussex. He was known as a fine shot, often invited to shoot at Sandringham by the Prince of Wales, the future Edward VII; a good horseman who taught Lillie Langtry to ride; and a keen fisherman. He gambled most of his inheritance on a two-horse race, declaring he would go to America if he lost - which he did. He journeyed to Wyoming during the cattle boom in the 1870s and 1880s. He founded an enormous ranch at Kaycee in Wyoming, where he built the first two storey building in the state. During his stay from 1879-1886 and, later, his many visits in America, he shook hands with every president from Ulysses Grant to Theodore Roosevelt in the White House. He met and married an American heiress, Clara Jerome in New York. They returned together to the Wyoming ranch but then Clara miscarried a child and she never returned to the euphemistically named Castle Frewen. Her husband, together with his brother Richard, soldiered on until the catastrophically cold winter of 1885-1886 wiped out his herd: the cattle died of thirst, being unable to break the ice in the rivers and lakes. Moreton's brother-in-law Lord Randolph Churchill, Winston's father, recommended him to the Nizam of Hyderabad, then the world's richest man, to sort out the corruption and theft in his court. Moreton spent two years there from 1887-1889 and succeeded in re-organising the Nizam's finances whilst routing out the miscreants. He left with the Nizam's thanks, having made many friends, including Salar Jung II, the Prime Minister of Hyderabad State, for whom he found a wife in Constantinople. Returning to the United Kingdom, where he owned homes in London and Innishannon in County Cork (then part of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland), Frewen served as Vice President of the Imperial Federation League.
