Charles Campbell, 9th Earl of Breadalbane and Holland

He was a Major in the Royal Horse Artillery and Royal Field Artillery and a Lieutenant-Colonel in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, and fought in the First World War, where he was awarded the Military Cross.

In May 1923, aged 34, he succeeded in the earldom of Breadalbane and Holland on the early death of his third cousin once removed, the eighth Earl.

[1] This was a Scottish peerage and did not entitle him to an automatic seat in the House of Lords.

However, in 1924 he was elected as one of the sixteen Scottish representative peer to sit in the House of Lords.

[1] Lord Breadalbane and Holland married Armorer Romer, daughter of Romer Williams, DL, JP, of Newnham Hall, Daventry, Northamptonshire, and widow of Eric Nicholson, in 1918.
