Erroneous Link
[edit]The Duke was not buried in the cemetery(sic) at St George's Parish Church in Shropshire, but at the family mausoleum at Trentham, Staffordshire (The Complete Peerage, Volume XII). I have taken the issue up with owner of the linked website, which describes the stone naming him at St George's as a "Grave monument", but which may actually only be a commemorative stone or 'cenotaph' or a foundation or dedication stone for the church building. I await his reply before removing the link entirely.Cloptonson (talk) 20:37, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
Political Activities
[edit]Contrary to impression given by article as it is, he had been a Member of Parliament for three constituencies of increasing size (The Complete Peerage, which mentions no deafness suffered - I think a citation is needed for this article's reference to deafness). Details of these and other activities, cited to Complete Peerage, will be given in due course.Cloptonson (talk) 20:48, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
Number of children
[edit]Does anyone have a legit source about the number of children he had? According to The Times obit, he had eight children (four daughters and four sons), with seven alive when he died. —МандичкаYO 😜 06:40, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
