Baptised in Lanchester, County Durham, England in 1722, Clavering was the younger son of Sir James Clavering Bt and Catherine Yorke,〔T. H. Bowyer, ‘Clavering, Sir John (bap. 1722, d. 1777)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, Sept 2004; online edn, Jan 2008 (accessed 26 May 2008 )〕 and younger brother of Sir Thomas Clavering, 7th Baronet.〔( The Peerage website )〕 He was commissioned as ensign in the Army in 1736, and was a captain of the Coldstream Guards by 1753.〔
During the Seven Years' War, Clavering served in the West Indies, commanding the attack on Guadeloupe, in 1759.〔 In 1762, he obtained a colonelcy on the 52nd (Oxfordshire) Regiment of Foot.〔 Promoted to Lieutenant General, in 1770, Clavering was appointed as governor of Landguard Fort.〔 In 1773, Clavering travelled to India as a member of the Council of Bengal. In 1774, shortly after Warren Hastings was appointed Governor General, Clavering was appointed as Commander in Chief in India.〔
He was created a Knight of the Bath in 1775. He died at Calcutta, India,〔 and is buried there in South Park Street Cemetery.〔''The South Park Street Cemetery, Calcutta'', published by the Association for the Preservation of Historical Cemeteries in India, 5th ed., 2009〕
