释义 |
Calthorpe was the fourth son of Frederick Gough, 4th Baron Calthorpe[4] and Lady Charlotte Somerset, daughter of the 6th Duke of Beaufort. He joined the 8th Hussars in 1849, rising to Brevet major by 1855. During the Crimean War he served as ADC[5] to Lord Raglan.[6] Lord Cardigan sued Calthorpe for his eyewitness account of the Charge of the Light Brigade in his memoir Letters from Headquarters, Or Realities of the War in the Crimea, but the action failed.[5] He became lieutenant-colonel in 1861, commanding the 5th Dragoon Guards. He was the first chairman of the Isle of Wight County Council, and was a JP both there and in his native Midlands. Two years before his own death, he succeeded his elder brother Augustus (1829–1910) as Baron Calthorpe in 1910. In 1862 he married Eliza Maria Chamier,[7] only child of Captain Chamier, RN and widow of Captain Frederick Crewe. They had two sons and two daughters, including:
