Also, Duke of Lennox, Earl of Darnley and Lord Torbolton in the Peerage of Scotland. 1681 - Invested as a Knight of the Garter. Appointed Lord High Admiral for life but this was only effective between 1701 and 1705 when Lennox resigned all his Scottish lands and offices. 1696 - Master of a masonic Lodge in Chichester - one of the few known Freemasons in the 17th century. He married Lady Anne Brudenell, daughter of Lord Brudenell and granddaughter of the Earl of Cardigan, in 1692. The Duke loved hunting and gambling. In 1697, he bought the small Jacobean house at Goodwood, near Chichester, West Sussex to use as a hunting lodge.
