George Gordon Noel Byron, 6th Baron Byron (1788-1824) was the famous Romantic poet and hero of the Greek War of Independence. His wife, Lady Byron, had been born Anne Isabella Milbanke (later changing her surname to 'Noel' before marrying Byron) and became 11th Baroness Wentworth many years after his death; their daughter was Ada Lovelace. Byron had, however, many lovers, and an illegitimate child by at least one.
In Tarzan Alive, Philip José Farmer identifies him as the great-grandfather of John Byron Wentworth, better known as Lord John Roxton, and as a friend of and influence on General Sir William Clayton.
