The family has over the centuries produced a significant number of public figures and men of achievement and notoriety, starting from the days of Sir Nicholas Hervey (d. 1532), who was Ambassador from Henry VIII to the Holy Roman Emperor. Sir Nicholas took part in the famous jousts at the Field of the Cloth of Gold in 1520. The Herveys have been politicians, diplomats, admirals, philanthropists, art collectors, conservationists, and memoirists. The phrase "When God created the human race, he made men, women and Herveys" is attributed variously to Voltaire and to Lady Mary Wortley Montagu. It has been read as a reference to the 18th century Lord John Hervey's noted originality and eccentricity, as well as his bisexuality, but applied to the family in general throughout the centuries.

The family has been throughout the centuries unconventional; the Herveys include a convicted female bigamist, a bishop who was believed to be an atheist, and a bisexual courtier. The 20th century produced two convicts: the father, Victor Hervey, 6th Marquess of Bristol, was jailed for jewelry robbery, and the son, John Hervey, 7th Marquess of Bristol, was twice imprisoned for drugs offenses.

The Herveys lived at the Ickworth estate, Suffolk, from the mid 15th century to 1998, and the first Hervey to own Ickworth, Thomas Hervey (d. 1467) is buried at Ickworth Church, as are John Hervey, 7th Marquess of Bristol (d. 1999) and Lord Nicholas Hervey (d. 1998), with many a Hervey in between. On the death of the 4th Marquess in 1951, the house and grounds (excluding the church) were given to the National Trust in 1956 by the 4th Marquess' widow in lieu of death duties. The National Trust received an endowment for Ickworth of £185,000, and the family (through whoever currently held the title of the Marquess of Bristol) was given a 99 year lease to occupy the East Wing of Ickworth, upon paying certain related yearly expenses. Despite this, the 7th Marquess sold the remaining lease to the National Trust in 1998, partly for funds and partly to ward off an eviction action based on his behavior as a tenant. In 1999, he died, having spent virtually all of his inherited fortune and his heir Frederick Hervey, 8th Marquess of Bristol has spoken of his anger at not being allowed by the National Trust to repurchase the lease and assume residence in the ancestral home. The National Trust converted the East Wing into a hotel for the public, thus directly going against the wishes of the donator of the House who stipulated that accommodation should always be made available for the head of the family by the National Trust.
