He was returned as the Member of Parliament for Aldeburgh at the 1747 election on the interest of his brother, Thomas Fonnereau,[4] who had developed an independent interest in the borough at the expense of the Government (which had formerly controlled it by patronage). However, Zachary consistently voted in support of Government when in Parliament.[4]
By his marriage to Margaret Martyn, he left five children, two of whom also served as Members of Parliament for Aldeburgh:
Philip Fonnereau (1739–1797), MP for Aldeburgh from 1761 to 1768
Martyn Fonnereau (1741–1817), MP for Aldeburgh from 1779 to 1784
Charlotte Fonnereau (28 January 1742 – 15 November 1806)
Fanny Fonnereau (7 January 1744 – 10 January 1827), married George Stainforth, Jr., on 22 March 1777 at Cornhill, died childless
Thomas Fonnereau (21 January 1746 – 26 December 1788), married Harriet Hanson on 19 October 1786 and left children, including the author and artist Thomas George Fonnereau
