Who was John Hoblyn?

John Hoblyn was an English lawyer and Member of Parliament. He was called to the bar at Middle Temple in 1682, and was Town Clerk of Bodmin from 1692. In 1695 he was elected to Parliament as Member for Bodmin, and retained the seat unopposed until his death. In the House of Commons he generally voted with the Tories.

Some sources erroneously state that the banker Sir John Houblon was elected three times as MP for Bodmin, apparently confusing him with Hoblyn.
