Bentley Lyonel John Tollemache was born in 1883, the son of Hon. Lyonel Plantagenet Tollemache (1860–1902) and Lady Blanche Sybil King (1862–1923), the only daughter and heiress of Robert King, 7th Earl of Kingston. His father died in August 1902 after he fainted while taking a swim, and Bentley Lyonel became heir to his grandfather Wilbraham Tollemache, 2nd Baron Tollemache of Helmingham Hall, Suffolk, and Peckforton Castle, Cheshire.
He was educated at Eton College, and later became a Deputy Lieutenant and a Justice of the Peace.
During the Boer War he was a British Army officer and pursued a military career until after the First World War. He was also an author, and publishd books on croquet and bridge.
Tollemache first married in 1902 Wynford Rose Kemball (died 16 May 1926), daughter of army officer and diplomat Arnold Burrowes Kemball RA, KCB, KCS. The marriage produced two daughters. His second marriage in 1928 was to Lynette Pawson, MBE, of Nynehead Court, Somerset, the marriage producing one female child

The Library catalogue was probably made for the 3rd Baron in 1947, but could have been produced for the 4th Baron before his succession in 1955.
