Charles Noel Somerset, 4th Duke of Beaufort (12 September 1709 – 28 October 1756) was the younger son of Henry Somerset, 2nd Duke of Beaufort, and his second wife, Rachel Noel.

He held the Doctor of Civil Law degree from Oxford.
On 1 May 1740, he married Elizabeth Berkeley, sister of Norborne Berkeley, 4th Baron Botetourt. Elizabeth died on April 9, 1799. The couple had one son and five daughters:
