Previously, the title Earl of Manchester was created for Sir Henry Montagu, who served in several public offices, including Recorder of London, Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales, Lord High Treasurer and Lord Privy Seal. His successor, the fourth Earl, who became Duke of Manchester, served as a Privy Counsellor and as a diplomat.
