He became a fellow at All Souls College in 1843.
After graduating from Oxford, he became a member of Lincoln's Inn and was called to the bar in 1848. He was commissioned as a lieutenant in the Sherwood Foresters in April 1850. Byron was appointed as a deputy lieutenant for Essex in September 1853. He was promoted to captain in the Sherwood Foresters in March 1859. Byron married Mary Jane Wescomb in 1851, with the couple having three children. He died suddenly at Westminster in April 1861, predeceasing his father. Byron's son George later became the 9th Baron Byron upon the death of Bryon's elder brother, George Byron, 8th Baron Byron.
