MARLBOROUGH

Eldest ancestor Henry Spencer died around 1478. His descendant sheep farmer Sir John Spencer (+ 1522) bought the estates of Wormleighton and Althorp. His descendant Sir Robert Spencer (1570-1627) was created Baron Spencer of Wormleighton in 1603. His grandson Henry Spencer, 3.Baron Spencer (1620-1643), was created Earl of Sunderland in 1643. His grandson Charles Spencer, 3.Earl of Sunderland (1675-1722) married as his second wife Lady Anne Churchill, daughter of John Churchill, since 1702 Duke of Marlborough (1650-1722). Their son Charles Spencer, 5.Earl of Sunderland (1706-1758) succeeded his aunt as 3.Duke of Marlborough in 1733. In 1817 the surname was changed to Spencer-Churchill.
