Frederick Bellenger

Captain Frederick John Bellenger (23 July 1894 – 11 May 1968) was a British surveyor, journalist, soldier and politician.

Born in Bethnal Green, London, he was the son of Eugene Bernard Bellenger, a dairyman, and his wife Isabella Annette née Henner.[1][2][3] He received only an elementary education before starting work aged 14. He worked in various jobs: in a tea warehouse in Houndsditch, as a messenger boy for the Post Office and as a clerk to an export company in the City of London.

Following the war he worked as a surveyor and estate agent in west London. He became active in the local Conservative Association, and was elected to Fulham Borough Council as a Municipal Reform Party councillor representing Baron's Court ward in 1922 and 1925. He did not stand for election in 1928, and shortly afterwards joined the Labour Party.
