James Radclyffe, 3rd Earl of Derwentwater (1689-1716), being raised at the court of the Stuarts in France as companion to James Francis Edward Stuart, the Old Pretender.
James and his brother Charles joined the Jacobite rising of 1715 and after being captured at Preston both were tried in London on charges of treason and condemned to death.

EARL OF DERWENTWATER, an English title borne by the family of Radclyffe, or Radcliffe, from 1688 to 1716 when the 3rd earl was attainted and beheaded, and claimed by his descendants, adherents of the exiled house of Stewart, from that date until the death of the last male heir in 1814.
The 2nd earl died in 1705, and was succeeded by his eldest son James (1689-1716), who was born in London on the 28th of June 1689, and was brought up at the court of the Stewarts in France as companion to Prince James Edward, the old Pretender.
The present representative of the Radclyffe family is Lord Petre, and in 1874 the bodies of the first three earls of Derwentwater were reburied in the family vault of the Petres at Thorndon, Essex.

 Earl of Newburgh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

On the death of the 5th Earl (also titular 7th Earl of Derwentwater), the title passed to a descendant of the daughter (and only child) of the 3rd Countess by her first husband, who was also Prince Giustiniani and Duke of Mondragone in the Italian nobility.

The battle of Sedgemoor is often referred to as the last battle fought on England soil, but this is incorrect: the Battle of Preston (1715) in Lancashire was fought on 14 November 1715, during the Jacobitism, and the Jacobitism saw a minor engagement at Clifton Moor near Penrith, England in Cumbria on 18 December 1745.
