Spencer Perceval was born November 1, 1762 in London.
He was educated at Harrow and Trinity College, Cambridge.
In 1796, he became a member of the House of Commons.
Perceval served as Prime Minister from 1809-1812.
Spencer Perceval died May 11, 1812, in the Lobby of the House of Commons after being assassinated.
On May 11, 1812, Perceval was on his way to attend the inquiry when he was shot through the heart in the lobby of the House of Commons by a mentally unsound man called John Bellingham, who blamed his financial instability on a casual suggestion of Perceval.
He died almost instantly, uttering the words "I am murdered", and Bellingham gave himself up to officers. He was found guilty and hanged a week later.
In later life Perceval had became an expert on Biblical prophecy and wrote pamphlets relating prophecies which he had discovered.
