GEORGE , 4th
Earl
  Waldegrave (1751-1789), the eldest son of the 3rd
earl
 , was a soldier and a member of
parliament
 . His SOnS, GEORGE (1784-1794) and JOHN JAMES (1785-1835), Were the 5th and 6th earls. In 1797 the 6th earl inherited from
Horace
  Walpole his famous residence,
Strawberry
  Hill,
Twickenham
 , but his son, GEORGE
EDWARD
 , the 7th earl (1816-1846), was obliged in 1842 to sell the valuable treasures collected there. His wife, Frances, Countess Waldegrave (1821-1879), a daughter of the
singer
  John Braham, was a prominent figure in society. He was her second husband, and after his death she married George
Granville
  Vernon Harcourt of Nuneham Park,
Oxford
 -shire, and later Chichester Fortescue, Baron Carlingford.
The 7th earl was succeeded by his uncle William (1788-1859), a son of the 4th earl, and in 1859 William's grandson, WILLIAM FREDERICK (b. 1851), became the 9th earl.
