While he was the Governor of Bombay, Lumley inaugurated the Brabourne Stadium. The references for the article about the stadium all call him Roger Lumley. Looking further, I find that google hits for Roger and Lawrence are similar (but it could have been influenced by wikipedia). But in the Times online archive (http://archive.timesonline.co.uk/tol/keywordsearch.arc ) there is a single hit for "Lawrence Lumley" - the obituary of his father from 1924. There are some 50 odd hits for "Roger Lumley" "Bombay". While some of them could be for "Lawrence Roger Lumley", there are several links (tinyurl.com/5qhnxx , tinyurl.com/5mmyd8 etc, please add http to the link) which unambigously call him Sir Roger Lumley.
Do we have major references which call him "Lawrence Lumley" ? If not, a move to "Roger Lumley" could be appropriate. Tintin18:15, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
