Durham, John George Lambton, Earl of, 1792-1840 : John George Lambton, first Earl of Durham was educated at Eton. He served as a Lieutenant in the 10th Dragoons, 1810-1811. He entered the House of Commons in 1813, and sat as a Whig until 1828, when he was created Baron Durham of the City of Durham and of Lambton Castle. Durham was sworn a member of the Privy Council and appointed Lord Privy Seal in 1830. He helped prepare the first Reform Bill but resigned from the Cabinet in 1833, and was created Viscount Lambton and Earl of Durham in the same year. He served as British Minister at St. Petersburg, 1835-1837.

He was appointed Governor-in-Chief for the provinces of British North America, 31 March 1838. Durham's task was to investigate questions respecting the form and future government of these colonies. He dealt with the problems of the Canadas with energy and determination. His ordinance exiling rebel leaders to Bermuda, however, was disallowed by the British Government and Durham resigned his post in October 1838 to protest this decision. On his return journey to England he supervised the compilation of his Report on the Affairs of British North America for the Colonial Office. Once back in England, Durham again entered the House of Lords and defended himself against the hostility which was shown him.

He died at Cowes, 28 July 1840.
