  Major Lowry-Corry was serving with the Inniskillings in Malaya in 1949 when his commanding officer handed him a telegram addressed ‘Lord Belmore’. It signalled that his bachelor cousin, the 6th Earl of Belmore, had died and that he, a great nephew of the 4th Earl, had succeeded to the earldom and the family seat of Castle Coole. He took immediate leave and returned to Ireland.
  Lord Belmore held the offices of Justice of the Peace and Deputy Lieutenant for County Fermanagh.
