Anthony Cary, 5th Viscount Falkland, PC (16 February 1656 – 24 May 1694) was an English nobleman and politician.
Biography
Cary was born at Farley Castle, Somerset, the son of Henry Cary, 4th Viscount Falkland, to whose peerage he succeeded as a child in 1663.
He married Rebecca Lytton and had one daughter:
- Harriott Cary (d. 21 October 1683)
As his peerage title was Scottish, he was able to sit in the English House of Commons. He thus served as Tory MP for Oxfordshire for 1685–1689, Great Marlow from 1689 to 1690, and Great Bedwyn from 1690 until his death. He died of smallpox in May, aged 38, without male issue. He was buried in Westminster Abbey.
