On 1 June 1829, he exchanged from half-pay into the Coldstream Guards as a Captain and Lieutenant-Colonel. However, he sold out and retired from the army on 4 June 1829. He married Lady Arabella Vane, youngest daughter of the 1st Duke of Cleveland, on 24 April 1831.〔 On 16 November 1849 he succeeded to the title of Lord Alvanley on the death of his brother William Arden, 2nd Baron Alvanley. With no son to inherit the title, the Barony of Alvanley became extinct when he died.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Richard Arden, 3rd Baron Alvanley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
