==Ancestry==
The great-grandfather of the subject of the present article was Henry Colley (d.1700) (or Cowley) of Castle Carbery, King's County, Ireland. The Colley family originally came from Rutland County in England, having gone to Ireland ''tempus'' Henry VIII, where they distinguished themselves as soldiers and administrators. Henry's sister Elizabeth married Garret (or Gerald) Wesley I of Dangan, Meath, younger son of Valerian Wesley and Ann Cusack. Henry's youngest son by Mary Usher, only daughter of Sir William Usher of Dublin, knight, was Richard Colley (d.1758) who in 1728, on the death without issue of his first cousin Garret Wesley II, son of his aunt Elizabeth, inherited the Wesley estates with the proviso in Garret's will that he and his heirs should adopt the name and arms of Wesley. He made the necessary formal declaration in 1728 and became known as Richard Wesley.〔The solemn declaration is recorded in: Patent Rolls 2 George II, 2a.p.D.R.4. (Quoted in Collins Peerage (1812) vol.8, p.541.〕 In 1746 he was created 1st Baron Mornington, an ancient barony of Wesley ancestors. His sister Ann married William Pole of Ballyfin, Queen's County. Mornington married Elizabeth Sale, producing as heir Garret Wesley, 2nd Baron Mornington, who was created in 1760 1st Earl of Mornington in County Meath. In 1759 he married Ann Hill and produced five exceptional sons, three of whom were as follows: firstly, Richard Wesley, the eldest son, who became Governor General of India and was created 1st Marquess Wellesley; the third son was Hon. William Wesley, father of the subject of the present article; and the fifth son was Arthur, Duke of Wellington.
William Wesley inherited the Pole estates from William Pole (d. 1778) of Ballyfin, the childless brother of his aunt Ann Colley. Yet again, the will of Pole required that Wesley's name be changed to Pole, thus William Wesley became in 1778 William Wesley-Pole. Wesley-Pole, born in 1763, also had an outstanding career, having been an Irish member of parliament for Trim, a Governor of Queen's County, and after the Union of 1800 a Westminster member for that County also, and having served as Chief Secretary for Ireland. He married in 1784 Katherine-Elizabeth, eldest daughter of Hon. John Forbes, Admiral of the Fleet, and produced a son the subject of the present article.〔Ancestry from Collins Peerage, 1812, (9 vols.) vol. 8, pp. 540-545〕
