Lord Chelsea was the second son of the 5th Earl Cadogan and his first wife, Beatrix, a daughter of the 2nd Earl of Craven. On 30 April 1892, he married Hon. Mildred Sturt (a daughter of the 1st Baron Alington) and they had six children:

Prior to becoming MP for Bury St Edmunds in 1892, Lord Chelsea was a captain in the 3rd Battalion of the Royal Fusiliers and some time Private Secretary to a First Lord of the Treasury. He died in 1908 and his wife later remarried — firstly to Hedworth Lambton (later Meux) (a son of the 2nd Earl of Durham) in 1910 and then to Lord Charles Montagu (a son of the 7th Duke of Manchester) in 1930.
