Life

He succeeded to the title in 1929. Carrington was the son of Rupert Carington, 4th Baron Carrington, and Edith, daughter of John Horsefall and Mary Maiden. He fought in the First World War as a captain in the Grenadier Guards and was twice wounded. After the war he served as a Deputy Lieutenant and Justice of the Peace for Devon. He succeeded his father in the barony in 1929,[1] but never spoke in the House of Lords.[2]

Family

Lord Carrington married the Hon. Sybil Marion Colville, daughter of his half-cousin Charles Colville, 2nd Viscount Colville of Culross, in 1916. They had one son and one daughter. He died in November 1938, aged 46, and was succeeded by his only son, Peter, who became a prominent Conservative politician. Lady Carrington died in December 1946.[1]

gollark: They just say "but TERRORISM" to shut down any critical reasoning about it and paint anyone who disagrees as *unpatriotic* and *eeeevil*.
gollark: Wikipedia notes misuse of *non-*mass surveillance in past. Spying on everyone and everything they do online will make it worse.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_the_United_States
gollark: Oh, this too:- ignoring relevant laws and gathering data anyway until new laws can retroactively allow it- getting around limits on spying on citizens by sharing data with other "Five Eyes" nations and spying on them as foreigners
gollark: Well, it's pretty known that they do go around intercepting lots of stuff. There are many problems with this:- having private data like your internet traffic stored somewhere is kind of bad in itself.- if it's not abused yet it's basically only a matter of time.- there's no transparency anywhere and even a system of secret courts to judge things- it may help slightly to stop terrorists (no transparency so we can't check really) but is just a massive breach of privacy
gollark: GNU+Windows?
