Lord Mount Edgcumbe married Caroline Augusta, daughter of Rear-Admiral Charles Feilding, in 1831. She was a half-sister of Henry Fox Talbot. He died in September 1861, aged 64, and was succeeded in the earldom by his son, William. Lady Mount Edgcumbe survived him by 20 years and died in November 1881.[4]
