Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NEW-NUM
NUGENT . ROBERT NUGENT,
EARL
  (1702-1788), Irish politician and poet, son of Michael Nugent, was born at Carlanstown, Co. Westmeath. He was tersely described by Richard
Glover
  as " a jovial and voluptuous Irishman who had left popery for the
Protestant
  religion, money and widows." His
change
  of religion took place at a very early period in life; he married in 1736 Anna (d. 1756), daughter of James Craggs, the secretary of state, a lady who had already been twice given in
marriage
 . His wife's property comprised the borough of St Mawes in
Cornwall
 , and Nugent sat for that constituency from 1741 to 1754, after which date he represented Bristol until 1774, when he returned to St Mawes. He was a lord of the treasury from 1754 to 1759 and president of the board of
trade
  from 1766 to 1768. He married in 1757 Elizabeth, dowager-countess of Berkeley, who brought him a large fortune. His support of the ministry was so useful that he was created in 1767 Viscount Clare, and in 1776
Earl
  Nugent, both Irish peerages. He died on the 13th of October 1788. Lord Nugent was the author of some poetical productions, several of which are preserved in the second volume of Dodsley's Collections (1748). The earldom descended by
special
 
remainder
  to the earl's son-in-law, George Nugent Temple Grenville, marquess of
Buckingham
 , and so to his successors, the dukes of
Buckingham
  and Chandos.
