Alexander Henry (1783 – 4 October 1862)[1] was a British Radical politician.[2][3]
Henry was elected Radical Member of Parliament for South Lancashire at a by-election in 1847—caused by Charles Pelham Villiers' decision to sit for another seat—and held the seat until 1852 when he did not seek re-election.[4]
