William Molyneux, 2nd Earl of Sefton
William Philip Molyneux, 2nd Earl of Sefton (18 September 1772 – 20 November 1838), also known as ''Lord Dashalong'', was a sportsman, gambler and a friend of the Prince Regent.
==Personal life==
Born in 1772, Lord Sefton was the only son of Charles Molyneux, 1st Earl of Sefton and Isabella Stanhope, daughter of the Earl of Harrington. In 1792, he married the Hon Maria Craven, daughter of William Craven, 6th Baron Craven. He had issue of 4 sons and 6 daughters. He succeeded to the title in 1795 and it passed in turn on his death in 1838 to his eldest son Charles William Molyneux, 3rd Earl of Sefton.
Charles Greville wrote of him:
:''"He was absolutely devoid of religious belief or opinions, but he left to all others the unquestioned liberty of rendering that homage to religion from which he gave himself a plenary dispensation. His general conduct was stained with no gross immorality, and as he was placed far above the necessity of committing dishonourable actions, his mind was habitually imbued with principles of integrity. They sat, however, lightly and easily upon him as regarded the conduct of others, not so much from indifference as from indulgence in those particular cases where a rigid and severe application of high principle would have interfered with his own convenience or enjoyment."〔Charles Greville, ''The Greville Memoirs'', Kindle edition, December 2nd, 1838.〕''
