Thomas Lascelles
[edit]I'm interested in what your interest is in Thomas Lascelles & any further info you might have on him (the Mount Grace one). Tattooed Librarian 18:37, 12 May 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by TattooedLibrarian (talk • contribs) I have been studying the history of the Lascelles family for more than thirty years. I'm afraid I have more to contribute in terms of doubts than certain information. Thus, while the source I have quoted proves that Thomas Lascelles of Mount Grace was a different man to the M.P., it also remains mere conjecture (though highly probable) that he was the son of the Lascelles of Sowerby family man born in 1624 (though I have not challenged this assertion in the Wikipedia article). The author of the article on Thomas Lascelles in the History of Parliament has simply assumed that a string of references to "Thomas Lascelles" apply to the same man when this is demonstrably false, and he has offered no forum for challenging his simplistic and entirely novel assertions. I have given clear documentary evidence for the little I have challenged.
That annoys me - I relied on that source and considered it reliable - that will teach me! Are you willing to share what you have on that part of the Lascelles family? In particular, I'd be interested to see the document re the dipute. I am researching it too - I know a bit about TL's descendants (one here if you're interested - unfinished article - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:TattooedLibrarian/Peter_Lascelles) Tattooed Librarian 18:34, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
