Earl of Euston until 1690 when succeeded his father as 2nd Duke of Grafton; served in Flanders in 1703; lord of the bedchamber 1714-17; viceroy of Ireland 1720-24; KG 1721; FRS 1749; lord chamberlain 1724-57; ‘never applied himself to business, and as to books was totally illiterate; yet … he became the ablest Courtier of his time …’ (James, 1st Earl of Waldegrave).
His father was the third son of the 2nd Duke of Grafton and Lady Henrietta Somerset, which made FitzRoy a great-grandson of both the 1st Duke of Grafton and the Marquess of Worcester. He was notably a fourth-generation descendant of King Charles II and the 1st Duchess of Cleveland; the surname FitzRoy stems from this illegitimacy.
