He succeeded his father in the viscountcy in 1834 but as this was an Irish peerage it did not entitle him to an automatic seat in the House of Lords. He was instead elected to the House of Commons for East Retford in 1847, a seat he held for the remainder of his life, and served as a Lord-in-Waiting in 1852 in the first Conservative administration of the Earl of Derby. Lady Galway died in September 1891.
