He became the 3rd Baron Radstock on the death of his father Granville George Waldegrave in 1857. Radstock married Susan Charlotte Calcraft on 16 July 1858 in Trinity Church, Marylebone.[2] In 1889, they acquired the Mayfield estate in Weston, Southampton.[3]
He was widowed on 8 December 1892.[1]
Radstock is perhaps best known for his work as a missionary during the Great Russian Awakening.[4] In 1873 he travelled to St Petersburg as part of his missionary work.
