Notes for Lionel George Henry DAWSON-DAMER 5th Earl of Portarlington
The fifth Earl, Lionel George Henry Seymour Dawson-Damer, had been a lieutenant in the Scots Guards, and honorary colonel of the 4th battalion of the Leinster Regiment. He was an important member of the Masonic Order, and was interested in race horses, cycling, photography and shooting. Vanity Fair in 1894 describes him as “not a very brilliant man, but people like him. He has a resonant voice.” The fifth Earl died at the early age of 42 in 1900, and the title passed to his son Lionel Arthur.
