From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Francis Charles Seymour-Conway, 3rd Marquess of Hertford KG GCH PC (March 11, 1777–March 1, 1842) was the son of Francis Seymour-Conway, 2nd Marquess of Hertford.
On May 18, 1798, he married Maria Emilia Fagniani. They had three children:
- Lady Francis Maria Seymour-Conway (d. 1822)
- Captain Richard Seymour-Conway, 4th Marquess of Hertford (1800–1870)

Lord Hertford was the prototype for the characters of the Marquess of Monmouth in Benjamin Disraeli's 1844 novel, Coningsby and the Marquess of Steyne in William Makepeace Thackeray's 1848 novel, Vanity Fair.
