In reply I can only say that Mr. Durand isn't of a mind to return to you the papers you want, neither is your brother because he holds you in suspicion. Omitting to write a word of thanks mocked his profession and his daughters and you should, my son, have written him also out of respect since he's the uncle of your wife. There's hope that shortly we will see our deliverance in France.

Regency History: Prince Edward, Duke of Kent (1767-1820)
Early years Prince Edward Augustus was born at Buckingham House on 2 November 1767, the fifth child and fourth son of King George III and Queen Charlotte. He was named after George III’s brother Edward, Duke of York, who died shortly before the new Prince’s birth. He was tutored by John Fisher who later became Bishop of Salisbury. Army career In 1785, Edward was sent to Luneburg to begin his career in the army as a cadet in the Hanoverian foot guards. He served in Hanover, Geneva, Gibraltar, the West Indies and Canada. Harsh disciplinarian or respected leader? Edward gained the reputation of a stern disciplinarian, making him unpopular with his men.
The Duke of York condemned Edward’s behaviour as “from first to last as marked by cruelty and oppression”. However, it would appear that Edward’s leadership was respected by the officers at Gibraltar who gave a fete in his honour in May 1791 before he was transferred to Quebec.

Sir John Conroy (1786-1854) - Childhood Nemesis of Queen Victoria Queen Victoria was the illegitimate daughter of an Irishman. At least that is the sensational claim of A.N. Wilson, one of the most respected historians to specialize in the Victorian Age. Wilson maintains that Victoria was the love child of a romance between her German-born mother, the Duchess of Kent, and one of her father’s key advisors, Sir John Conroy. If Wilson’s assertion is true, the British Royal Family is directly descended from a Roscommon man. ‘The Young Victoria’ is a sumptuous 2009 epic, co-produced by the unlikely collaboration of Sarah Ferguson (former Duchess of York) and Martin Scorsese, with a script by the Oscar-winning writer Julian Fellowes. Queen Victoria was born on 24th May 1819. Wilson claims it is ‘overwhelmingly probable’ that Conroy fathered the future Queen. When John Conry died in 1767, his 8-year-old son John Ponsonby Conroy succeeded.
Meanwhile, Conroy had his own problems. Search object details. Registration numbers The most common type of Museum number begins with the year of acquisition. The database standardises these numbers in the form, for example: 1887,0708.2427 (year: comma: block of four numbers - usually representing a month and day: full-stop and final number). The final number can be of any length and may be followed by another full-stop and a sub-number. In some cases the same number is shared by two or more objects across departments. In some of these cases a prefix has been added before a number (e.g. If the number you are entering has come from an old catalogue it could appear in the form 1887-7-8-2427.

BACSA Books. Cemetery Records Books One of BACSA’s most important objectives is to compile and disseminate information about cemeteries and in particular to record those buried in them. As part of this work it has published a series of books which give the names of those interred or commemorated in a cemetery or church, often with the text of individual inscriptions or other biographical details. These Cemetery Records Books will ensure that there will still be a record of the persons listed in them even if the cemetery were to disappear. For a name index to all the books visit BACSA Search.
