Who was James Butler, 7th Marquess of Ormonde?

James Hubert Theobald Charles Butler, 7th Marquess of Ormonde was the son of Reverend James Theobald Bagot John Butler and Lady Annabella Brydon Gordon. He married, firstly, Nan Gilpin, daughter of Garth Griffith Gilpin, on 3 March 1935. They had two daughters:

The Lady Constance Ann Butler

The Lady Violet Cynthia Lilah Butler

He married, secondly, Elizabeth Rarden, daughter of Charles R. Rarden, in 1976. This marriage produced no children.

Without a male heir the marquessate became extinct in 1997, while the earldom is dormant. The 18th Viscount Mountgarret, who succeeded his father in 2004 is understood to be the likely heir of the former Marquess' related title Earl of Ormonde but has not successfully proven the claim.
