Francis Godolphin Henry Pelham, 7th Earl of Chichester (23 March 1905 – 22 November 1926) was a British nobleman, styled Lord Pelham from April 1905 to 1926.
He held one of the shortest tenures of an earldom on record, outliving his father, the 6th earl, by only 9 days; and was succeeded by his younger brother John, then 14 years old.
He was educated at Eton College and Trinity College, Oxford; and died of pneumonia.
