When his father succeeded in the marquessate in 1807 he gained the courtesy title of Earl of Leicester. Lord Leicester married Sarah, daughter and heiress of William Dunn Gardner, in 1807. They had no children and Sarah left him after only a year. (The marriage was never dissolved although she committed adultery in a bigamous marriage). Lord Townshend, as he became after his father's death in 1811, was educated at Eton and Trinity College, Cambridge. He was disinherited by his father and lived mainly abroad.
