- George Curzon-Howe, 2nd Earl Howe
George Augustus Frederick Louis Curzon-Howe, 2nd Earl Howe, was a British peer.
Curzon-Howe was born on 16 January 1821. He was the eldest son of Richard William Penn Curzon-Howe, 1st Earl Howe and Harriet Georgiana Brudenell. He married Harriet Mary Sturt, daughter of Henry Charles Sturt and Lady Charlotte Penelope Brudenell, on 3 February 1846.
Until the death of his father, George Curzon-Howe was styled 'Viscount Curzon' (it is a British custom for a peer's heir apparent to be referred to as a viscount, if the second most senior title, held by the head of the family is a viscountcy). On his father's death in 1870, Curzon-Howe gained the title 2nd Earl Howe. On his own death on 4 February 1876 at age 55, his titles passed to his brother Richard Curzon-Howe, 3rd Earl Howe [Darryl Lundy.
