Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RHY-RON
RICHARD GRENVILLE , 3rd duke of Buckingham and Chandos (18231889), the only son of the 2nd duke, was educated at
Eton
  and Christ Church,
Oxford
 , and, as marquess of Chandos, represented the borough of Buckingham in
parliament
  from 1846 to 1857. He was chairman of the London & North-Western railway from 1853 to 1861. After succeeding to the dukedom he became lord president of the council, and subsequently secretary for the colonies in the Conservative government of 18661868. From 1875 to 188o he was
governor
  of
Madras
 , and in 1886 was chosen chairman of committees in the
House
  of Lords. He was twice married and left three daughters. As he left no son the dukedom became
extinct
  on his death; but the Scottish barony of Kinloss (to which he established his title in 1868) passed to his eldest daughter, Mary, the wife of Captain L. F. H. C.
Morgan
 ; the earldom of Temple to his nephew, William Stephen Gore-Langton; and the viscounty of Cobham to his kinsman, Charles George, 5th Baron Lyttelton. His widow married the 1st
Earl
  Egerton of Tatton in 1894.
