James Molyneaux, Baron Molyneaux of Killead

James Molyneaux was born in Killead, County Antrim, in 1920, a small village that later gave its name to his life peerage. He went on to lead the Ulster Unionist Party for sixteen years and serve as a Member of Parliament, yet his earliest memory was the particular quality of light in that northern townland. Killead did not merely appear in his biography; it shaped the man who carried its name into chambers of power.
