    • Notes about Thomas Patrick John ANSON

    Thomas Patrick John Anson, 5th Earl of Lichfield (25 April 1939 - 11 November 2005) was an English photographer from the Anson family. He inherited the Earldom of Lichfield in 1960 from his paternal grandfather. In his professional practice he was known as Patrick Lichfield.

    Thomas Patrick John Anson was born 25 April 1939. He was the only son of Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas William Arnold Anson, Viscount Anson (1913-1958), the eldest son and heir apparent of Thomas Edward Anson, 4th Earl of Lichfield (1883-1960). His mother was born Anne Bowes-Lyon (1917-1980), a niece of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. His parents divorced in 1948, and his mother subsequently became Princess Anne of Denmark after her remarriage to Prince George Valdemar of Denmark in 1950. He had one sister, Elizabeth Georgiana (born 1941), who married Sir Geoffrey Adam Shakerley, 6th Baronet Shakerly.

    Lichfield was educated at two boarding independent schools: at Wellesley House School, in the coastal town of Broadstairs in Kent, and at Harrow School, in Harrow-on-the-Hill in North West London, followed by the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, in the small town of Sandhurst in Berkshire.

    His father died in 1958, leaving Thomas to succeed as 5th Earl of Lichfield when his grandfather died in 1960.

    Lichfield joined the Grenadier Guards in 1959. On leaving the Army in 1962, he began to work as a photographer's assistant, and built up his own reputation, partly as a result of having access to the Royal Family. He was selected to take the official photographs of the wedding of the Prince and Princess of Wales in 1981, and subsequently became one of the UK's best-known photographers. From 1999 onwards he was a pioneer of digital photography as a professional standard. He was chosen by the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh to take official pictures of her Golden Jubilee in 2002.

    Lichfield resided at the former family seat of Shugborough Hall, near Cannock Chase in Staffordshire although in 1960 he had given the estate to the National Trust in lieu of death duties arising on his grandfather's death.

    Marriage and children
    On 8 March 1975 Lichfield married Lady Leonora Grosvenor, elder daughter of the 5th Duke of Westminster and Viola, Duchess of Westminster. They were divorced in 1986. The Countess of Lichfield has not remarried and has retained her title. They had one son and two daughters together:

    Lady Rose Meriel Margaret Anson (27 July 1976), a god-daughter of Princess Margaret
    Thomas Anson, 6th Earl of Lichfield (19 July 1978); he married Lady Henrietta Conyngham, daughter of Henry Conyngham, 8th Marquess Conyngham, in December 2009. They have two sons:
    Thomas Ossian Patrick Wolfe Anson, Viscount Anson (20 May 2011)
    Hon. Finnian Anson (12 August 2014)
    Lady Eloise Anne Elizabeth Anson (1981); she married Louis Alexander Philip Waymouth on 7 September 2013.

    Lichfield's most recent partner was the biographer Lady Annunziata Asquith, daughter of Julian Asquith, 2nd Earl of Oxford and Asquith.

    Death
    On 11 November 2005, Lichfield suffered a major stroke, and died the following day (Remembrance Day) at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, aged 66.

    Lichfield's funeral was held on 21 November at St. Michael and All Angels Church, Colwich, Staffordshire, where he was buried in the family vault.

    Since 2011 the private apartments at Shugborough have housed an exhibition of Lichfield's work. His cameras and lighting gear have been set up in a recreation of his studio, and there is a gallery of some of his most famous photographic subjects.
