Edward Lloyd, 1st Baron Mostyn

[1] In 1806 he was elected to the House of Commons for Flint Boroughs, a seat he held until 1807 and again from 1812 to 1831 and also represented Beaumaris between 1807 and 1812.

[2] He lived at Pengwern, between Rhuddlan and St Asaph in Flintshire, in a house that had been built by his great uncle, Sir Edward Lloyd.

A guide book to the area published in 1847 described him as "a genuine Welshman [who] speaks with fluency the language of his country", adding that "his lordship keeps two packs of hounds for the amusement of his friends and the neighbouring gentry; and though in the 78th year of his age, seldom misses mounting his scarlet, particularly if the hounds turn out within eight or ten miles of his mansion.

"[3] In 1840 a group of friends and admirers presented him with a portrait of himself, painted by Mary Martha Pearson.

Married 20 June 1827 to Lady Harriet Margaret Scott (eldest daughter of the Earl of Clonmel, with issue) 2.
