Educated at Harrow School, he joined the army as a staff officer.[1] On 7 November 1910 he changed his surname name from Lloyd-Anstruther to Anstruther-Gough-Calthorpe, discarding the name of Lloyd and adding his wife's surnames. Before the First World War he served as a part-time Lieutenant in the Army Motor Reserve, then in September 1915 was appointed as an ADC on the General Staff, ending the war with the rank of Captain.[2] He was created a Baronet on 1 July 1929.[3]

Gertrude Duncombe (1827–1916).[1] His paternal grandparents were James Hamilton Lloyd-Anstruther (1806–1882) and Georgiana Charlotte Burrell (1811–1843), who had been married in 1838.[citation needed]

He had a brother, Reginald Lloyd-Anstruther, who died as a child in 1875, and a sister, Rosalind Gertrude (died 1903), the wife of Brigadier General Noel Armar Lowry-Corry (1867–1935), by whom she had issue.[citation needed]
