About Francis Leigh, 3rd Baron Leigh
Colonel Francis Dudley Leigh, 3rd Baron Leigh was a British peer and Warwickshire landowner. He was Lord of the Manor of Hunningham. An officer in the Warwickshire Yeomanry and honorary colonel of several volunteer and Territorial formations associated with the county, he served as an ambulance driver in the First World War. In 1921, he became Lord Lieutenant of Warwickshire, and held the post until his death in 1938. He had no children by either of his two marriages, so his peerage passed to a nephew.
