Born as Count Albert Edward Wilfred von Gleichen, he was the only son of Prince Victor of Hohenlohe-Langenburg (a half-nephew of Queen Victoria) and his wife, Laura Williamina (a sister of the 5th Marquess of Hertford ). Lady Feodora Gleichen, the noted sculptor, was his sister.
Although of German origin with the hereditary title of Count, Edward Gleichen was very much an Englishman. He was distantly related to Queen Victoria and served as a Page of Honour in the 1870s. He was born on 15 Jan 1863 and was 18 when he joined the Grenadier Guards.
