Clifford Blackburn Edgar (1857 – 20 March 1931) was a Coalition Conservative MP for Richmond in Surrey. He won the seat in 1918, but lost it to an Independent Unionist in 1922.
Biography Educated at the University of Manchester (BSc) and the University of London (MusB), Edgar was involved with West African development for half a century, being a director of the Bank of British West Africa. He was a member of Surrey County Council and also Mayor of the Municipal Borough of Richmond (Surrey).
A photographic portrait of him was taken by Walter Stoneman in 1921; that portrait is now in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery, London.
