  • Sir Fredric Wise (16 August 1871-26 January 1928) was a banker, stockbroker, economist and Conservative Party politician active in the Ilford area. He was the eldest son of Alexander Josiah Patrick Wise of Belleville Park, County Waterford, Ireland and his wife Julia née Woods of Benton Hall, Northumberland. He entered banking in 1899. In 1903 he became a stockbroker in a firm he founded based in Newcastle upon Tyne. Wise was also a director of the Daily Express and of the Sudan Plantation Syndicate. In September 1920 he was elected member of parliament for Ilford at a by-election caused by the death of the sitting MP. It was a period of political instability and he held the seat when three general elections were held in quick succession in 1922, 1923 and 1924. He was knighted in 1924 New Years Honours. When Ilford was incorporated as a Municipal Borough in 1926, Wise was named as the Charter Mayor. He died from heart failure at his home near Hatfield, Hertfordshire, in January 1928, aged 56.
