Lord Henry Lindegard, 5th Earl of Monton, Baron Montrose, Baron St Olwins KCM KGCIH, was a Vionnan nobleman and soldier. The first son of the 4th Earl, both of Lindegard's younger siblings (Lucy, his twin; and Horace) would similarly have military careers. Made Earl of Monton on the death of his father in 1895, Lindegard's military career spanned twenty-three years and several conflicts.

Early Life

Born in 1877 at Montrose Castle, the traditional seat of the lords of Monton, Henry Lindegard was the first son of the Fourth Earl and his wife Matilda de Pentiere. He also had a twin sister, Lucy, who was born after him. He was educated by tutors and his father at Montrose Castle until he was seven, at which point he began attending Lawrenceburgh College and later spent two years at Falscraf before his formal education ended at sixteen.
