Neville Chamberlain was born on 18 March 1869 in Edgbaston, Birmingham, England, UK. He was married to Anne de Vere Cole. He died on 9 November 1940 in Heckfield, Hampshire, England, UK.
In 1938 Chamberlain was lauded during his tenure as Prime Minister for keeping Britain out of a war with Germany. However after World War II he was denigrated for appeasement.
