When he died, the titles were inherited by his nephew John, the sixteenth Earl, who was the son of the Hon. John Joseph Talbot.
When, in 1831, the principal home of the family at Heythrop, Oxfordshire, was destroyed by fire, he moved the family seat to Alton Towers.
The sixteenth Earl was also a noted patron of A W N Pugin.
He was succeeded by Bertram, his second cousin-once-removed, the seventeenth Earl, who was the great-grandson of the Hon. George Talbot, younger son of the aforementioned Gilbert Talbot (died 1711), second son of the tenth Earl.
Bertram died unmarried at an early age in 1856. By his Will, he left his estates to Lord Edmund Howard (by Royal Licence from 1876-1922: Talbot), son of the Duke of Norfolk, a Will contested by three distant relatives and, after a long and expensive legal case, the House of Lords ruled in 1860 in favour of Henry John Chetwynd-Talbot, 3rd Earl Talbot, who thus became the eighteenth Earl of Shrewsbury and Waterford.
