FitzRoy Somerset, 1st Baron Raglan. Commander in the Crimean War 1853 - 56. It is generally thought to have been his overall incompetence that led to the disaster of the Charge of the Light Brigade. Died of dysentery and disappointment at the failure of the Siege of Sebastopol. His body was brought back to England and buried at Badminton, where he was born.
