Edward Cazalet (9 November 1827 – 21 April 1883), was a British merchant and industrialist.
Cazalet was born in Brighton on 9 November 1827, the youngest of seven children of Peter Clement Cazalet (1785–1859), merchant and Russian consul, and his wife, Olympia Cazalet (d. 1848).
On 15 March 1860, Cazalet married Elizabeth Sutherland Marshall (d. 1888), daughter and heir of William Marshall, doctor and Danish consul in Edinburgh.[1] Their only child was William Marshall Cazalet, born 1865.[1] In 1872, Cazalet purchased the estate of Fairlawne at Shipbourne in Kent; he also owned Villa Liserb at Cimiez in the south of France, which was often visited by Queen Victoria, who became godmother to his grandson, Victor Cazalet, born 1896.[3]
Cazalet died of typhus at the Hôtel d'Angleterre, Constantinople, on 21 April 1883, and was survived by his wife.[1] He was buried at St Giles's Church, Shipbourne, on 7 May 1883.[1]
