The Times 13 May 1911 p13 Obituary The death occurred from double pneumonia yesterday, at this residence, 47, Upper Grosvernor-street, W., of Mr Emerson M. Bainbridge, formerly M.P. for the Gainsborough Division of Lincolnshire. He only returned from the south of France last week, where he had been suffering from a severe attack of influenza. Mr Emerson Muschamp Bainbridge, who was 65 years of age, was a son of the late Mr Emerson Bainbridge, of Eshott Hall, Northumberland. He was educated privately and, concurrently with his period of apprenticeship in Lord Londonderry's collieries, at the University of Durham, where he studied mathematics and mining engineering. He soon established a reputation among those connected with the mining industry. In 1867 he was selected to report to the North of England Institute of Mining Engineers on the haulage of coal, and his efforts were rewarded by the committee by the conferment of a valuable premium. Two years afterwards the Institution of Civil Engineers awarded him the Manby premium for a paper upon the probability of working coal at a depth of 4,000ft. Another paper on the prevention of colliery explosions was rewarded by the conferment of one of the Herman prizes. In 1870 the Sheffield and Tinsley Collieries were placed under the supervision of Mr Bainbridge and he later accepted the management of the Duke of Norfolk's Collieries. Afterwards he became managing director of the Nunnery Colliery Company and, with other gentlemen, opened up a considerable number of new coalfields in the Midlands. How wide were the interests of Mr Bainbridge is shown from the long list of companies of which he was a director, including the Blackwell Colliery Company (Limited), the Bolsover Colliery Company (Limited), the Griff Colliery Company (Limited), the Hatfield Main Colliery Company (Limited), the Mansfield Railway Company, the New Hucknall Colliery Company (Limited), the Newbiggin Colliery Company (Limited), the Nunnery Colliery Company (Limited), the Sheffield District Railway Company, the Wharncliffe Silkstone Collieries (Limited), and the Yorkshire Engine Company. Mr Bainbridge's wide knowledge of engineering made him a valuable member of the Royal Commission on Coal Dust in Mines in 1891, and at the Inventions Exhibition of 1883 he was one of the jurors. In 1895 Mr Bainbridge was nominated as Liberal candidate for the Gainsborough Division at Lincolnshire, and was elected by a majority of 776 votes. He sought re-election in 1900, but was defeated by the Hon. S. Ormsby-Gore by 37 votes. Mr Bainbridge made many gifts to charitable objects, and built a holiday home for factory girls at Seaford and a Miners' Orphanage at Bolsover, Chesterfield. He was twice married, first to Eliza, daughter of Mr G. J. Armstrong, of Manchester, and, secondly, to Norah Mossom, daughter of Mr J. Compton Merryweather, of Whitehall Court, S.W., who survives him.

The Bainbridge Church Story by J. D. Dawson - check Edwin's father was a prominent Newcastle-on-Tyne Methodist but he died when Edwin was seven. Shortly afterwards the boy's mother died also and he and his brothers and sisters were brought up by their grandmother... Edwin was sent on an overseas trip partly for his health, which had never been robust, and partly to help him recover from these tragic bereavements.
And Not to Yield by Thora Parker p124 - In New Zealand Edwin Bainbridge, always described as 'the young English tourist' had been staying at my mother's home prior to going to Rotorua to see the Pink and White Terraces. Edwin was 20 years of age and had come to New Zealand to visit his Aunt Selina Drake [nee Walters] who had come out on the Aurora, and his cousins, my mother Mercy Jenkins [nee Drake] being one of them. His health was not good, and it was hoped the trip would be beneficial. p125 Edwin appears to have had a premonition that he would not survive, and was distressed for his family's sake. They had recently suffered the loss of his two sisters, who had died of consumption. p126 Edwin's death came as a terrible shock to all the New Zealand relatives. The reaction of his family in Newcastle-on-Tyne when they heard of his tragic death, was to send funds sufficient for the establishment of a Methodist church in Rotorua, the nearest town to where the tragedy occurred. The church was called the Bainbridge Memorial Church.
Letters written to the New Zealand Government 10th June 1886 by Dawn CHAMBERS In: GRINZ Yearbook 2002 [Genealogical Research Institute of New Zealand] In 1940, a sister of Edwin Bainbridge, who was living at Poignton in Devonshire, wrote to J. E. SMITH to find out where her brother's money went. Smith then requested answers from the Minister of Internal Affairs, W. E. PARRY.
