Lady Anne Percy (1536-1591), Countess of Northumberland, was a leading figure in the Northern Rebellion of 1569, riding with the rebel forces, leading small parties of men independently, and intercepting post between Queen Elizabeth and the Regent of Scotland.
Afterwards he married Lady Anne Crichton-Stuart, daughter of Lord Bute, in 1764. In 1766, his father was granted a dukedom and he was styled Earl Percy. As a Member of Parliament and the son-in-law of Lord Bute, Percy was promoted to full colonel and appointed an aide-de-camp to the king in 1764, having barely reached his majority.
