Notes par Henry SOMERSET

Eldest surviving son of Edward Somerset, 4th Earl of Worceter, and Lady Elizabeth Hastings. Paternal grandson of William Somerset, 3rd Earl of Worcester, and the Honourable Christian North. Maternal grandson of Francis Hastings, 2nd Earl of Huntingdon, and the Honourable Catherine Pole.

Henry inherited the earldom on his father's death. Raised a Protestant, he converted to the Roman Catholic faith as a young man. He was a very wealthy peer, who financially aided the royalist cause of Charles I, advancing huge sums of money to the Crown just prior to the First English Civil War.

In recognition of his support, he was created Marquess of Worcester in 1642.

His wife, the Honourable Anne Russell, provided him with nine sons and four daughters. They had been married in 1600, and she was the daughter of John Russell, 3rd Baron Russell.

King Charles sought refuge at Raglan Castle after his army was destroyed at the Battle of Naseby, and Henry was forced to surrender the castle to Parliamentary forces in 1646.

He was taken into custody and died at Covent Garden, London, succeeded by his son Edward.
