He married Lady Charlotte Stuart, daughter of John Stuart, 1st Marquess of Bute, in 1797.[1] In 1801 he was created a baronet, of Dunlum in the County of Westmeath.[2] He acted as agent for the trustees of Dromana (where he also resided) for his brother-in-law Lord Henry Stuart and then his son, Henry, until 1847.
Homan died in March 1852. His only son had predeceased him and the title died with him.
