Served as MP for Beeralston Bere Alston in Devon, 1728-33.
Succeeded his father as 10th Earl of Suffolk in 1733 and so also became the Visitor.
Married Sarah Hucks, daughter of William Huscks of London, brewer and had no children.
As Visitor he appointed Edward Abbott to the Mastership in 1740.
He died at Audley End from gout, aged 39. As there were no children the visitorship passed to the Countess of Portsmouth [see MCWA/A/103].
