Sir Brograve Campbell Beauchamp, 2nd Baronet (5 May 1897 – 25 August 1976)[1] was a British businessman and National Liberal and Conservative Party politician.
Beauchamp was the son of the Liberal politician and Lloyd's chairman Sir Edward Beauchamp, 1st Baronet, and his second wife Betty Campbell Beauchamp (née Woods), an American from Columbus, Ohio.[2] Educated at Eton College, he served in the Life Guards during the First World War, but did not serve overseas.[3][4] His elder brother, Edward Archibald Beauchamp, was killed in the war[5] and Brograve therefore succeeded to the baronetcy on the death of his father in 1925. Sir Brograve died on 25 August 1976 at the age of 79, and the title became extinct.
