On 13 May 1652 [his sister-in-law] Henry Compton was killed in a duel with George Brydges 6th Baron Chandos (age 31) at Putney, Surrey [Map].

Evelyn's Diary. 29 Dec 1659. Came my Lord Count Arundel, of Wardour (age 51), to visit me. I went also to see my Lord Viscount Montague (age 49).

In or before 1661 [his son] Thomas Arundell 4th Baron Arundel (age 28) and [his daughter-in-law] Margaret Spencer Baroness Arundel Wardour (age 33) were married. She by marriage Baroness Arundel of Wardour in Wiltshire. They were second cousin once removed.

Evelyn's Diary. 09 Jun 1664. Sir Samuel Tuke (age 49) being this morning married to a lady, kinswoman to my Lord Arundel of Wardour (age 56), by the Queen's Lord Almoner, L. Aubigny (age 44) in St. James's chapel, solemnized his wedding night at my house with much company.

Evelyn's Diary. 17 May 1671. Dined at Mr. Treasurer's (age 40) with the Earl of Arlington (age 53), Carlingford, Lord Arundel of Wardour (age 63), Lord Almoner to the Queen, a French Count and two abbots, with several more of French nobility; and now by something I had lately observed of Mr. Treasurer's (age 40) conversation on occasion, I suspected him a little warping to Rome.

Evelyn's Diary. 19 Aug 1671. I dined at the Hamburg Resident's, and, after dinner, went to the christening of Sir Samuel Tuke's (age 56) son, Charles, at Somerset House, by a Popish priest, and many odd ceremonies. The godfathers were the King (age 41), and Lord Arundel of Wardour (age 63), and godmother, the Countess of Huntingdon (age 58). [Note. This must refer to the Dowager Countess of Huntingdon wife of Ferdinando Hastings 6th Earl Huntingdon since his successor Theophilus Hastings 7th Earl Huntingdon (age 20) didn't marry until 1672.].

On or after 10 Feb 1675 [his son] Henry Arundell (age 41) and [his daughter-in-law] Mary Scrope (age 41) were married.

On 24 Mar 1676 [his wife] Cicely Compton Baroness Arundel Wardour (age 66) died.

Evelyn's Diary. 10 Mar 1687. His Majesty (age 53) sent for the Commissioners of the Privy Seal this morning into his bedchamber, and told us that though he had thought fit to dispose of the Seal into a single hand, yet he would so provide for us, as it should appear how well he accepted our faithful and loyal service with many gracious expressions to this effect; upon which we delivered the Seal into his hands. It was by all the world both hoped and expected, that he would have restored it to my Lord Clarendon; but they were astonished to see it given to Lord Arundel, of Wardour (age 79), a zealous Roman Catholic. Indeed it was very hard, and looked very unkindly, his Majesty (age 53) (as my Lord Clarendon protested to me, on my going to visit him and long discoursing with him about the affairs of Ireland) finding not the least failure of duty in him during his government of that kingdom, so that his recall plainly appeared to be from the stronger influence of the Papists, who now got all the preferments.

On 28 Dec 1694 Henry Arundell 3rd Baron Arundel (age 86) died. His son [his son] Thomas Arundell 4th Baron Arundel (age 61) succeeded 4th Baron Arundel of Wardour in Wiltshire.

[his daughter] Cicely Arundell was born to Henry Arundell 3rd Baron Arundel and Cicely Compton Baroness Arundel Wardour.
