The 3rd Earl Cawdor was a multi-faceted man. Educated at Eton and Oxford, he became an MP in 1874 and held numerous other offices over his lifetime, including "Deputy Lieutenant" in three counties, Aide-de-Camp to two monarchs between 1899 and 1911, President of the Royal Agricultural Society in 1901, and First Lord of the Admiralty in 1905.

The earl's father's mother's father's mother was a great-great-great-great-aunt of Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom (1926), which makes John and his siblings that monarch's fourth cousins once removed and makes their children her fifth-cousins.
The earl and his daughter-in-law Joan were second cousins, both great-grandchildren of the 2nd Marquess of Bath. Therefore, Joan's children, as well as her husband, were also fifth-cousins to Queen Elizabeth.
