Sir William Foot Mitchell JP (26 June 1859 – 31 July 1947)[1] was a Conservative Party politician in England.
Mitchell was Managing Director of Royal Dutch Shell plc, an Anglo–Dutch multinational oil and gas company, from 10 March 1903 to 31 December 1938,[2] including the year that Royal Dutch Petroleum and the Shell Transport and Trading Company came together to form a petroleum company in 1907.[3]
He spent much of his early career in the East, largely in Japan and China,[4] before settling in the UK, buying Quendon Hall, Quendon, in 1907.[5]
Political career
He was elected to the House of Commons at the January 1910 general election as Member of Parliament (MP) for Dartford, beating the sitting Liberal-Labour MP James Rowlands.[6] However, Rowlands regained the seat at the December 1910 general election.[6]
Mitchell did not contest the 1918 general election, but at the 1922 general election he was elected as MP for Saffron Walden.[1] He held the seat until he stood down at the 1929 general election.[7]
He was knighted in 1929 by King George V.[8]
