John Baptist Caryll

John Baptist Caryll

John Baptist Caryll, (born 13 December, 1713, died 7 March 1788) was the third Jacobite Baron Caryll of Durford.

Caryll was the eldest son of the Honourable John Caryll (28 December 1687-6 April 1718), who predeceased his father, the 2nd Baron Caryll.

After succeeding his grandfather, he got into financial difficulties, as a penalised Catholic, and sold the family properties at West Grinstead and Harting, West Sussex. He entered the household in Rome of the so-called "Young Pretender", the exiled Stuart claimant, recognised by Jacobites as "King Charles III". Charles Edward Stuart appointed Caryll his Secretary of State and made him a Knight of the Thistle. Caryll returned to France in 1777 and died at Dunkirk on 7 March, 1788.
