Charles Sedley inherited the title (5th baronet) in 1656 when his brother William died. By his first wife, Lady Katherine Savage, daughter of John Savage, 2nd Earl Rivers, he had only one legitimate child, Catherine, Countess of Dorchester, who later became a mistress of James II of England.
Sedley first stood for New Romney in 1665, but, as he explained to the mayor, he was one day too late to secure the nomination of the Duke of York in his capacity as lord warden. Nevertheless he was defeated by Henry Brouncker only on the mayor’s casting vote.
