No, governors did not represent the colonies in Parliament. Each colony had its own governor, appointed by the British crown or elected by the colonists, but these governors had no direct representation in the British Parliament. Instead, colonial interests were largely communicated through petitions and other forms of advocacy, but the colonies were not given a formal voice in the legislative body that governed them. This lack of representation contributed to growing tensions that ultimately led to the American Revolution.
In 1760, the southern colonies were governed by royal governors appointed by the British Crown. The legislative bodies in these colonies, such as the House of Burgesses in Virginia and the General Assembly in South Carolina, had some power to create and pass local laws, but ultimately the governors had significant authority and control over colonial affairs.

Royal governors in the British colonies were often weaker than their Spanish and French counterparts due to the greater political autonomy and self-governance enjoyed by the British colonies. Many colonies had established representative assemblies that wielded significant power, allowing local leaders to influence governance and resist royal authority. In contrast, Spanish and French colonies were more directly controlled by the crown, with centralized bureaucracies that limited local influence. Additionally, the British colonies' geographic dispersion made it challenging for governors to exert uniform control.

The colonies did not like having little or no political voice. Taxes continued to be increased to pay for governors who were loyal to the British causes.

Governors, governors council, and assemblies.
In 1724, there were several colonies in North America, each with its own governor, but the exact number varies depending on the specific region being referenced. By 1762, as the British Empire expanded, there were more colonies and therefore a greater number of governors in office. Overall, the precise count of governors for those specific years would require detailed historical records, but it is safe to say that there were at least a couple of dozen governors across the colonies during that period.
