Background and educationStyled Lord Settrington from birth, he was born at Portland Place, London, the eldest son of Charles Henry Gordon-Lennox, 6th Duke of Richmond and Frances Harriett, daughter of Algernon Frederick Greville. He was educated at Eton between 1859 and 1863. In 1860 he became known as the Earl of March after his father succeeded to the dukedom.[1] CareerLord March joined the Grenadier Guards two years later, although he retired in 1869 after he was elected Member of Parliament for West Sussex. He represented that constituency until it was abolished for the 1885 general election, when he was returned to the House of Commons for the Chichester constituency. He held his seat until 1889. Around this time, he was appointed as an Ecclesiastical Commissioner, a position he occupied until 1903. He and his brother, Lord Algernon Gordon-Lennox, both served in the Second Boer War in South Africa, with Lord March in command of the Sussex Militia from his arrival in March 1901. He returned to England in June 1902,[2] following the end of hostilities in South Africa the previous month. Lord March was appointed Lord Lieutenant of Elginshire on 27 August 1902,[3] and also served as Lord Lieutenant of Banffshire from November 1903, after his father´s death. On 27 September 1903, Gordon-Lennox succeeded his father as 7th Duke of Richmond and Lennox and 2nd Duke of Gordon (2nd creation). In 1904, King Edward VII made him a Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order and a Knight of the Order of the Garter. He was Grand Master of the Sussex branch of the Freemasons from 1902.[4] After his death, he was buried in Chichester Cathedral.

She was the sister of Colonel Horace Ricardo and of Colonel Francis Ricardo of Cookham in Berkshire. They had three sons and two daughters.[5] After her death in August 1879, aged 32, he married secondly Isabel Sophie Craven, daughter of William George Craven, in 1882. They had two daughters. Isabel died in November 1887, aged 24. Richmond remained a widower until his death in January 1928, aged 82. He was succeeded in the dukedom by his eldest son, Charles.
