Richard Monckton Milnes was born on 19 June 1809 son of Robert Pemberton Milnes, of Fryston Hall, Yorkshire, and the Hon. Henrietta Monckton, daughter of the fourth Lord Galway, was born in London on the 19th of June 1809.
He was educated privately, and entered Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1827.
After taking his degree, Milnes travelled abroad, spending some time at Bonn University.
There he was at once drawn into a literary set, and became a member of the famous " Apostles " Club, which then included Tennyson, Hallam, Trench, J. W. Blakesley, afterwards dean of Lincoln, and others.
Thence he went to Italy and Greece, and published in 1834 a volume of Memorials of a Tour in some Paris of Greece, describing his experiences.
Church matters had always a claim upon him: he wrote a striking tract in 1841, which was praised by Newman; and took part in the discussion about " Essays and Reviews, " defending the tractarian position in One Tract More (1841).
He published two volumes of verse in 1838, Memorials of Residence upon the Continent and Poems of Many Years, Poetry for the People in 1840 and Palm Leaves in 1844. He was among the first to recognize the genius of Keats and in 1848 published his Life, Letters, and Literary Remains of John Keats.
Milnes also contributed largely to the reviews.
He was surrounded by the most brilliant men of his time, many of whom he had been the first to acclaim.
He helped David Gray and wrote a preface for The Luggie.
His son, the second Baron Houghton, was created Earl of Crewe (q. v. ) in 1895.
His chief title to remembrance rests on the part he played, as a man of influence in society and in moulding public opinion on literary matters, in connexion with his large circle of talented friends.
