Barne Barne (25 August 1754 – 19 June 1828) was a British land-owner and a Member of Parliament for the Pocket Borough of Dunwich , in Suffolk , between 1777 and 1791. Barne's father had established himself as co-proprietor of the Borough and controlled one seat; on his father's death in 1777, Barne's eldest brother declined to fill the vacancy and so Barne accepted the offer, hoping to obtain, by voting with the administration, a paid office. He was eventually offered a post, as a Commissioner of Taxes, and, on accepting it, resigned his seat in 1791.
