Lord Richard Cavendish (1752-1781)

Lord Richard Cavendish (19 June 1752 – 7 September 1781) was the second son of William Cavendish, 4th Duke of Devonshire and his wife, Charlotte.

In 1773, he entered the House of Commons and moved to No. 1 Savile Row, where he resided until 1781. He was one of the few attendees at his brother Devonshire’s wedding in 1774. In 1781, he went abroad in hopes of recovering his failing health; but he continued to decline and died in Naples.
