George Fermor, 3rd Earl of Pomfret

The 3rd Earl in the uniform of a Captain in the Northamptonshire Militia, a rank he held from 1804.

George Fermor, 3rd Earl of Pomfret (6 January 1768 - 7 April 1830) was the third holder of the title of Earl of Pomfret in the Peerage of Great Britain. He was the eldest son of George Fermor, 2nd Earl of Pomfret and succeeded to the title on his father's death in 1785.

On 29th August 1793 he married Mary Browne (c.1769-1839), daughter and heiress of Thomas Trollope Browne, a wine merchant. However, they separated soon afterwards and had no issue, meaning that in 1830 the earldom passed to George's younger brother Thomas[1].
