Samuel Finney
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Samuel Finney (1857 – 14 April 1935) was a Labour Party politician in the United Kingdom.
He was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for North West Staffordshire at a by-election in 1916, following the death of Labour MP Albert Stanley.
When that constituency was abolished at the 1918 general election, he was returned to Parliament for the new Burslem constituency. He did not contest the 1922 general election, when Andrew MacLaren held the seat for the Labour Party.
