Lord James Cavendish (d. 1751)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For his nephew, the British soldier and politician, see Lord James Cavendish (d. 1741).
Lord James Cavendish (bef. 1707 – 14 December 1751) was a British politician, the third son of William Cavendish, 1st Duke of Devonshire.
He married Anne Yale (d. 1734), daughter of Elihu Yale, and had two children:
- Hon. William Cavendish (d. July 1751), married Barbara Chandler, no issue
- Hon. Elizabeth Cavendish, married Richard Chandler in February 1722
As his only son predeceased him by a few months, his heir was his son-in-law Richard Chandler, who subsequently adopted the name of Cavendish.
