A sort-of famous bearer of this name, more a prominent bearer of the name, is Peregrine Andrew Morny Cavendish, 12th Duke of Devonshire, KCVO, CBE (born 27 April 1944); he is a British peer. He is the only surviving son of the 11th Duke of Devonshire and his wife, the former Deborah Mitford. He succeeded to the dukedom following the death of his father on 3 May 2004. Prior to this succession, he was styled Marquess of Hartington. He is married to Amanda Cavendish, née Heywood-Lonsdale. They have three grown-up children and reside in the gloriously ornate and historical family residence at Chatsworth House, Derbyshire, England. :-)
