Charles Anderson-Pelham, 1st Earl of Yarborough (8 August 1781 – 5 September 1846), styled Hon. Charles Anderson-Pelham from 1794 to 1823, was the founder of the Royal Yacht Squadron. He lived at Appuldurcombe House, on the Isle of Wight, which had been inherited by his wife Henrietta from her uncle, Sir Richard Worsley.

There are two monuments to him: one at Culver Down, on the Isle of Wight and Pelham's Pillar Monument at Caistor, Lincolnshire, England.

He was Member of Parliament (MP) for Great Grimsby from 1803 until his re-election in 1807 was overturned on petition in 1808,[1] and for Lincolnshire from 1807 to 1823.[2]

His younger son the Honourable Dudley Pelham was a naval commander and politician.
