Major-General William

Craven, 1st Earl of Craven (28 September 1770 – 30 July 1825) was a British soldier. Craven was the eldest son of William Craven, 6th Baron

Craven, and his wife Lady Elizabeth

Berkeley, and succeeded his father as seventh Baron Craven in 1791. He served in the Army and achieved the

rank of major-general. In

1801 he was created Viscount Uffington, in the County of Berkshire, and Earl of Craven, in the County of York. The

earldom was a revival of the title held by his 17th-century kinsman and

namesake William Craven,

1st Earl of Craven. Craven later served as Lord Lieutenant of Berkshire

from 1819 to 1826. He mostly resided at Coombe Abbey, near Coventry in Warwickshire and occasionally at Hamstead Marshall in Berkshire. He is not entirely forgotten —

Harriette Wilson begins

her famous memoir, "I shall not say why and how I became, at the age of

fifteen, the mistress of the Earl of Craven." Craven married Louisa Brunton in 1807. He died in July 1825, aged 54, and was

succeeded in his titles by his son William.
