Paulyn Rawdon-Hastings, 3rd Marquess of Hastings

[3] His mother, who inherited the barony when only seven months old, was the only child of Henry Yelverton, 19th Baron Grey de Ruthyn (a friend of Lord Byron)[4] and the former Anna Maria Kellam.

His paternal grandparents were Francis Rawdon-Hastings, 1st Marquess of Hastings and his wife, Flora Mure-Campbell, 6th Countess of Loudoun.

[3] His father died on 13 January 1844, when Paulyn was only twelve years old, and he succeeded as the 3rd Marquess of Hastings and owner of Donington Hall, the family seat near Castle Donington village, North West Leicestershire.

[6] While in Liverpool, Lord Hastings fell into the docks and "was not rescued until his strength was almost exhausted" which led to his death at Dawson Street in Dublin, Ireland on 17 January 1851 at age eighteen.

[6] He was interred in the family vault in the parish church of Castle Donington, which had been constructed under the supervision of his father.
