Edward Howard, 8th Earl of Suffolk

Edward Howard was the second son of Henry Howard, 5th Earl of Suffolk, and his wife Mary Stewart.
He was educated at Magdalene College, Cambridge.
He succeeded his nephew Charles Howard, 7th Earl of Suffolk in 1722.

Sarah Howard, Countess of Suffolk
Sarah Howard, Countess of Suffolk( died 27 May 1776), formerly Sarah Inwen, was the wife of Henry Howard, 10th Earl of Suffolk, and subsequently the wife of Lucius Cary, 7th Viscount Falkland.
Sarah Inwen was the daughter of Thomas Inwen, a brewer of Southwark, and his wife, Sarah Hucks, and was distantly related to Jane Austen.
She married the Earl of Suffolk on 13 May 1735.
Her father's money appears to have been one of the attractions for him.
The earl died in 1745, aged 39, leaving no surviving children.
The earldom passed to Henry Howard, 4th Earl of Berkshire, a great grandson of the 1st Earl.
Sarah remarried, her second husband being Viscount Falkland, whom she married on 10 October 1752 as his second wife; he had previously been married to Jane Butler.
Thereafter, Sarah's surname became Cary, and she was known as Viscountess Falkland.
Viscount Falkland had four surviving children from his first marriage and none from his second marriage.
Her will, proved in June 1776, contained bequests to a number of charitable causes, including St George's Hospital and Christ Church Hospital, as well as bequests to many individuals who were friends or servants.
Her house, Widford Hall, was left to a relative on her mother's side, William Hucks.
She stipulated that she should be buried at St Mary's Church, Widford, Essex, and that her grave should take the form of a pyramid.
The resulting monument was designed by George Gibson and erected in 1778.
Her husband, the viscount, lived until 1785.
Henry Howard, 10th Earl of Suffolk
Henry Howard, 10th Earl of Suffolk (1 January 1706 – 22 April 1745), of Audley End, Essex, styled Lord Walden from 1731 to 1733 was a British politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1727 until 1733 when he succeeded to the peerage.
Howard was the only child of Charles Howard, 9th Earl of Suffolk and his wife Henrietta Hobart, daughter of Sir Henry Hobart, 4th Baronet.
He was brought up by his father and had little contact with his mother after she became mistress to George, Prince of Wales, later George II.
He was admitted at Magdalene College, Cambridge.
Howard was returned as Member of Parliament for Bere Alston by his uncle, Sir John Hobart, 5th Baronet.
He voted consistently against the Government.
On the death of his father on 28 September 1733, he succeeded to the peerage as Earl of Suffolk and vacated his seat in the House of Commons.
Suffolk married Sarah Inwen, daughter of Thomas Inwen brewer of Southwark, on 13 May 1735, with £25,000 which allowed him to discharge the mortgages on Audley End.
He died on 22 April 1745 at age 39 with no surviving issue and no brothers to whom the title could be passed.
The line of Earls of Suffolk back to Henry's great-great grandfather Thomas Howard, 1st Earl of Suffolk thus died out, and the title passed to a great grandson of the 1st Earl (via the 1st Earl's second son Thomas), Henry Howard, 4th Earl of Berkshire.
Henry's widow Sarah remarried to Lucius Cary, 7th Viscount Falkland, on 10 October 1752.
She died on 27 May 1776.

Lady Henrietta

They had two children:
Her son Henry inherited the titles of his grandfather, Henry O'Brien, 7th Earl of Thomond.
Lord Ibrackan died of smallpox in 1690.

His father died on 7 March 1779, leaving behind his pregnant widow.
The Earldom of Suffolk became dormant until she gave birth( as a daughter would not inherit the earldom, but a son would).
Henry, therefore, became Earl of Suffolk upon his birth, but only survived for two days.
He was buried on 23 August 1779 at Charlton and was succeeded by his great- uncle Thomas Howard, 14th Earl of Suffolk.
Charles Howard, 9th Earl of Suffolk
Charles Howard, 9th Earl of Suffolk (1685 – 28 September 1733) was an English nobleman and politician, styled Hon.
Charles Howard from 1691 to 1731.
The third son of Henry Howard, 5th Earl of Suffolk, he was commissioned a captain in Echlin's Regiment of Dragoons on 27 February 1703.
During that year, he sat for few months as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Carlow Borough in the Irish House of Commons.
On 2 March 1706, he married Henrietta, who was the daughter of Sir Henry Hobart, 4th Baronet and had been placed with the Suffolk family on her father's death.
Their one son, Henry, was born in 1710.
The marriage was not a happy one; Charles was a drunken and abusive husband, and neither was possessed of any great means.
Charles and Henrietta traveled to Hanover to seek favor with the Prince-Elector George, who seemed likely to succeed to the English throne.
They were, indeed successful in securing posts at his accession as George I in 1714; Charles as Groom of the Bedchamber to the King, and Henrietta as a Woman of the Bedchamber to Caroline, Princess of Wales.
However, this brought Henrietta into the company of the Prince of Wales, whose mistress she became.
Charles was by no means complacent about these arrangements, and, according to Horace Walpole, his acquiescence had eventually to be bought with a pension of £1,200
p.a.
He also received an appointment as Deputy Lieutenant of Essex in 1718 and a commission as Captain and Lieutenant-Colonel in the Coldstream Guards in 1719.
He was not reappointed as a Groom of the Bedchamber after the death of George I in 1727; he had formally separated from his wife shortly before the end of the reign.
In 1731, he succeeded his brother Edward as Earl of Suffolk, and as Henrietta was now formally a Countess, she was appointed Mistress of the Robes.
Suffolk died in 1733 and was succeeded by his son Henry.
