Note 219 — JOURNAL OF ELIZABETH LADY HOLLAND (continued 4)

The seat of Frederick, fifth Earl of Carlisle (1748–1825), who succeeded to the title on his father’s death in 1758. He held the posts of Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland 1780–82, and Privy Seal 1783. He married, in 1770, Margaret Caroline, daughter of Granville, first Marquess of Stafford. He was a well-known figure in society, and if his verses are not of the highest merit, they were well spoken of at the time. His eldest son, Lord Morpeth, who succeeded him, is frequently mentioned in these pages.
