He is also Earl of Kerry in the peerage of Ireland (1722); Earl of Shelburne and Earl of Wycombe in the peerage of Great Britain (1753 and 1784); Viscount Clanmaurice, Viscount Fitzmaurice (1751), and Viscount Calne and Calston; the 30th Baron of Kerry and Lixnaw in the peerage of Ireland (1181); Baron Dunkeron, and Baron Wycombe.[1] Early lifeLansdowne is the elder son of George Petty-Fitzmaurice, 8th Marquess of Lansdowne, a Conservative politician and landowner, by his marriage to Barbara, daughter of Harold Stuart Chase, of Santa Barbara, California.[1] His father inherited the peerage titles (and the Bowood House estates in Wiltshire) from a cousin, the 7th Marquess of Lansdowne, who was killed in action in 1944, when the present Marquess became known as the Earl of Shelburne, a courtesy title. He was educated at Eton College[1] and was Page of Honour to Queen Elizabeth II in 1956–1957.[2] CareerLord Shelburne (as he then was) served in the Kenya Regiment from 1960 to 1961.[3] In 1962 he was gazetted a Second Lieutenant in the Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry[4] and in 1971 transferred with the rank of Lieutenant to the Royal Yeomanry attached to the Royal Armoured Corps.[3][5] He was a member of Calne and Chippenham Rural District Council from 1964 to 1973, President of the Wiltshire Playing Fields Association from 1965 to 1974, a member of Wiltshire County Council from 1970 to 1985, and a councillor of North Wiltshire District Council from 1973 to 1976.[3][6] He was chairman of Calne and Chippenham Rural District Council from 1970 to 1973 and of North Wiltshire District Council from 1973 to 1976. Shelburne also served as a member of the South West Economic Planning Council from 1972 to 1977 and chaired its Population Settlement Pattern Working Committee during the same period. He was a member of the Historic Buildings and Monuments Commission (English Heritage) from 1983 to 1989; Deputy President of the Historic Houses Association from 1986 to 1988 and President from 1988 to 1993; President of South West Tourism from 1989-2006; President of the Wiltshire Association of Boys Clubs and Youth Clubs from 1976 to 2003; and President of the North Wiltshire Conservative Association from 1986 to 1989.[3] In 1990, he was appointed a Deputy Lieutenant of Wiltshire, and currently serves as the Vice Lord Lieutenant of Wiltshire.[7] He has served as President of the Wiltshire Historic Buildings Trust since 1994[8] and of the Wilts & Berks Canal Partnership since 2001. At the 1979 general election, he contested Coventry North East for the Conservatives, coming second behind Labour's George Park.[3] On 25 August 1999, his father died and he became Marquess of Lansdowne and a member of the House of Lords.[3] In 2001, Lord Lansdowne was appointed a Lieutenant of the Royal Victorian Order, shortly after retiring as a member of the Prince's Council of the Duchy of Cornwall (1996-2001).[9] FamilyOn 9 October 1965, he married, firstly, Lady Frances Helen Mary Eliot (6 March 1943 – 6 January 2004), daughter of Nicholas Eliot, 9th Earl of St Germans, but they were divorced in 1987, having had four children:[10]
In 1987 Lord Lansdowne married, secondly, Fiona Mary Merritt (b. 1954), daughter of Donald Merritt and Lady Davies,[3] an interior decorator known by her married name of Fiona Shelburne.[14] The heir apparent to the title is Simon, Earl of Kerry (b. 1970), elder son of the Marquess. If he fails to produce a son, his heir presumptive is his younger brother Lord William Petty-Fitzmaurice (b. 1973) who is married but has no sons. The next heir is Lord Robert Mercer Nairne (born 1947), the younger brother of the present Marquess, who is married with two sons, both of whom also have sons, and one daughter. If Lord Kerry and his brother fail to produce legitimate sons, the entailed estates and titles will pass in due course to a descendant of their uncle Lord Robert Mercer Nairne.
