After 1723, Lord Bristol's heir was his eldest son by his second marriage, John, Lord Hervey, the brilliant and mercurial figure whose Memoirs of the Court of George II and Queen Caroline have become a classic.
Frederick Augustus Hervey had entered the Church and, through the influence of his eldest brother, the 2nd Earl, then Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, had obtained first the Bishopric of Cloyne and subsequently (in 1768 when he was only 38 years old) that of Derry.
Great things were expected of the Bristol viceroyalty, including - in addition to the novelty of full-time residence on the part of the Lord Lieutenant - a 'broad-bottomed' administration in which the celebrated 'Patriot' leaders, the 1st Earl of Charlemont and Henry Flood, would have participated.

In March 1777, he went to Italy, where he spent three years, chiefly in Rome, studying the remains of antiquity and making original designs for public buildings.
There, he made the acquaintance of Thomas Pitt, 1st Baron Camelford, Frederick Augustus Hervey DD, 4th Earl of Bristol, and other influential persons, who were of service to him in later years.
In 1778, during his absence abroad, his first publication appeared, being a series of plates of temples, baths and such like, designed in the then prevailing style, and possessing so little merit that he afterwards bought up and destroyed all copies that could be found.
