The Hon. Montagu Curzon (21 September 1846 – 1 September 1907) was a British soldier and Conservative politician.




Early life


Curzon was the eldest son of Richard Curzon-Howe, 1st Earl Howe, by his second wife Anne, daughter of Vice-Admiral Sir John Gore. George Curzon-Howe, 2nd Earl Howe, Richard Curzon-Howe, 3rd Earl Howe and the Hon. Sir Leicester Smyth were his elder half-brothers and the Hon. Sir Assheton Curzon-Howe his younger brother. Admiral Richard Howe, 1st Earl Howe was his great-grandfather.




Career


Curzon was a Colonel in the Rifle Brigade. He was returned to Parliament for Leicestershire North in an 1883 by-election (caused by the death of Edwyn Sherard Burnaby), a seat he held until the constituency was abolished two years later.




Personal life


Curzon married in London on 19 October 1886 Esmé FitzRoy (1859–1939), the fourth daughter of Francis Horatio FitzRoy (son of Admiral Lord William FitzRoy) and his wife, the Hon. Gertrude Duncombe (second daughter of William Duncombe, 2nd Baron Feversham). They had one son and one daughter:

Mary Curzon (1887–1962), who married her first cousin, Francis Curzon, 5th Earl Howe on 28 October 1907. They divorced in 1937.
William Montagu Curzon-Herrick, who married Lady Maud Kathleen Cairnes Plantagenet Hastings, daughter of Warner Hastings, 15th Earl of Huntingdon.
