Charles Somerset, 1st Earl of Worcester, KG (c. 1460 - 15 March 1526) was an English nobleman and politician. He was the legitimised bastard son of Henry Beaufort, 3rd Duke of Somerset by his mistress Joan Hill.
He was invested as a Knight of the Garter in about 1496. On 1 February 1514 he was created Earl of Worcester and was at some time appointed Lord Chamberlain of the Household to King Henry VIII. As Lord Chamberlain, Somerset was largely responsible for the preparations for the Field of Cloth of Gold in 1520.
Marriages & progeny
He married three times, although his second marriage is uncertain:
Firstly on 2 June 1492, to Elizabeth Herbert, 3rd Baroness Herbert (died pre-March 1513) (daughter of William Herbert, 2nd Earl of Pembroke, 2nd Baron Herbert) in right of whom he was created Lord Herbert. By Elizabeth Herbert he had the following children:
Henry Somerset, 2nd Earl of Worcester, only son and heir
Elizabeth Somerset, his only daughter, wife successively of Sir John Savage and Sir William Brereton.
Secondly to Elizabeth West, daughter of Sir Thomas West, 8th Baron De La Warr. His supposed marriage to Elizabeth West, however, may be an error made by Dugdale, repeated by later writers. By Elizabeth West he supposedly had the following progeny:
Sir Charles Somerset
Sir George Somerset
Lady Mary Somerset of Worcester, wife successively of William Grey, 13th Baron Grey de Wilton and of Robert Carre.
Thirdly to Eleanor Sutton, daughter of Edward Sutton, 2nd Lord Dudley.
Death & burial
Somerset died on 15 April 1526 and was buried with his first wife at St. George's Chapel.
