This article appears in Volume V05, Page 339 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAR-CAU
CARLINGFORD, CHICHESTER SAMUEL FORTESCUE, BARON (18231898) , British statesman, son of Chichester Fortes-cue (d. 1826),M.P. for Louth in the Irish
parliament
 , was born in January 1823. He came of an old family settled in Ireland since the days of Sir Faithful Fortescue (15811666), whose uncle, Lord Chichester, was lord
deputy
 . The history of the family was written by his elder brother
Thomas
  (1815-1887), who in 1852 was created Baron Clermont. The future Lord Carlingford, then Mr Chichester Fortescue, went to Christ Church,
Oxford
 , where he took a first in classics (1844) and won the chancellor's English essay (1846); and in 1847 he was elected to
parliament
  for Louth as a Liberal. He became a junior lord of the treasury in 1854, and subsequently held
minor
  offices in the Liberal administrations till in 1865 he was made
chief
  secretary for Ireland under Lord Russell, a post which he again occupied under Gladstone in 1868187o; he then became president of the Board of Trade (18711874), and later lord privy seal (18811885) and president of the council (18831885). He was raised to the peerage in 1874. He parted from Gladstone on the question of Irish
Home
 
Rule
 , but in earlier years he was his active supporter on Irish questions. His influence in society was due largely to his wife, Frances (18211879), previously the wife of the 7th
Earl
  Waldegrave, whom he married in 1863. In 1887 his brother, Lord Clermont, died, and Carlingford inherited his peerage; but on his own death without issue on the 3oth of January 1898 both titles became
extinct
 .
