## Biography

Arthur was born in Downton Abbey in the early morning of the 25 May, 1935. He was the second Crawley grandchild to be born in the family's estate, the first being his eldest cousin Sybbie Branson.

He was named after the legendary King Arthur and his late paternal grandfather, Robert Crawley—with the second name being in accordance with the Ashkenazi Jewish tradition of naming a newborn after a deceased loved one.

Arthur is christened in a private service at St. Michael and All Angels Church on the 22nd of August, 1935 by the Archbishop of Canterbury. His godparents included: James Lewis, Archibald Campbell, Alfie McGregor, Diana Smith and Mary Crawley.

He holds the title of **Viscount Downton**, which is his father's subsidiary title. He is also the sixth first-born heir to the Earldom of Grantham since the 4th Earl succeeded his father after its death.
