Early life

File:Portrait of Arthur Chichester (1739-1799), 1st Marquess of Donegall (by Thomas Hudson).jpg
Portrait of Arthur Chichester by Thomas Hudson, 1745

Chichester was born on 13 June 1739. He was the son of Hon. John Chichester and Elizabeth Newdigate (1703–1769), eldest daughter of Sir Richard Newdigate, 3rd Baronet. His paternal grandparents were Arthur Chichester, 3rd Earl of Donegall, and Lady Catherine Forbes (a daughter of the 1st Earl of Granard), in 1726.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>

He was educated at Westminster School in 1748 and Trinity College, Oxford, matriculating in 1757, before succeeding his uncle in 1757 as fifth Earl of Donegall.<ref name="5thEarlofCHOP"/>

Career

After taking his seat in the Irish House of Lords in 1765, Donegall served at Westminster as Member of Parliament for Malmesbury (1768–1774) by his friend Lord Suffolk, first following Suffolk and the Grenville group. Reportedly, he never spoke in the House, and did not stand for reelection in 1774.<ref name="5thEarlofCHOP"/>

As a means of securing his support for the Government in the Irish House of Commons, he was in 1790 created Baron Fisherwick, of Fisherwick in the County of Stafford, in the Peerage of Great Britain. The following year he was also created Earl of Belfast and Marquess of Donegall in the Peerage of Ireland.<ref name="5thEarlofCHOP">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Personal life

Lord Donegall married three times. On 11 September 1761, he married Lady Anne Hamilton, daughter of James Hamilton, 5th Duke of Hamilton. Before her death on 11 November 1780, they had seven children:

  • Lady Elizabeth Juliana Chichester (d. 1787)<ref name="Mosley2003"/>
  • Lady Amelia Chichester, who died in infancy.<ref name="Mosley2003"/>

On 24 October 1788 he married Charlotte Moore (née Spencer), daughter of Conway Spencer, and widow of Thomas Moore. She died, without issue, on 19 September 1789.<ref name="Mosley2003"/>

In October 1790, he married Barbara Godfrey, daughter of the Rev. Dr. Luke Godfrey, Rector of Midleton, County Cork.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Lord Donegall held on lease a country residence at Butley Priory, Suffolk. He died on 5 January 1799, aged 59, at his London home in St James's Square, Westminster. His widow, the dowager Marchioness of Donegall, died on 28 December 1829.<ref name="Mosley2003">Mosley, Charles, editor. Burke's Peerage, Baronetage & Knightage, 107th edition, 3 volumes.
