His ancestor George Spencer, a member of the aristocratic Spencer family, was proud of his consanguinity with John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough, so he has decided to choose Spencer-Churchill as his surname when he took the title of Duke of Marlborough in 1817.Winston Churchill’s father Lord Randolph Churchill was a politician and the third son of John Spencer-Churchill, 7th Duke of Marlborough.
