Overview

Henry Howard FRS (2 July 1757 – 1 March 1842) was an English antiquarian and family historian, best known as the author of Memorials of the Howard Family. Early life Howard was born at Corby Castle in Cumberland on 2 July 1757, into the large and prominent Roman Catholic Howard family. Henry was the eldest son of Philip Howard (1730–1810) of Corby Castle, who wrote Scriptural History of the Earth and of Mankind, first published in London in 1797. His mother was Anne Witham, daughter of Henry Witham of Cliffe, Yorkshire. Among his sisters was Maria Howard, the second wife of Hon. George William Petre (son of Robert Petre, 9th Baron Petre). After his death in 1797, she married Col. Henry William Espinasse in 1802. His paternal grandparents were Thomas Howard (d. 1740) and, his second wife, Barbara Musgrave, daughter of Philip Musgrave (son of Sir Christopher Musgrave, 4th Baronet) and Hon. Mary Legge (daughter of George Legge, 1st Baron Dartmouth). Before his grandparents married, his grandfather had been married to the Hon. Barbara Lowther (daughter of John Lowther, 1st Viscount Lonsdale). His great-grandfather, William Howard, was a son of Sir Francis Howard (the second son of Lord William Howard, himself the third son of Thomas Howard, 4th Duke of Norfolk). Howard was educated at the college of the English Benedictines at Douay, and for a short time in 1774 studied at the University of Paris.
