Date of death

The Guardian says he died on 11 July. The Telegraph says he died "yesterday", i.e. 10 July. The BBC just says that he "has died". Opera hat (talk) 20:22, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Telegraph says yesterday probably because the obituary will appear in the paper edition of the paper on Tuesday 12th. The Guardian specifically says 11th, the Bradford Telegraph & Argus reports Leeds Utd statement regretting the death on Monday of their former president.

Out of Wedlock Birth

Why is it necessary to emphasize the out-of-wedlock birth of Mark Hubert Lascelles, or to point out that he was not eligible to inherit his father's earldom? Even if Mark were born in wedlock, his elder half-brother would have succeeded anyway.John Paul Parks (talk) 16:01, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There have been plenty of cases in the aristocracy where a 3rd, 4th or 5th son have inherited a title. And this dealt with the succession to the throne as well, which gets traced out through hundreds of names. Consider that Queen Victoria was the daughter of the 4th son of George III, none of whom died before reaching marital age. So it was within the realm of possibility that Mark might become the heir to earldom. History Lunatic (talk) 21:18, 16 December 2016 (UTC)History Lunatic[reply]

What happened to Andrea Kershaw?

It reads as if Mark Lascelles married Judith Kilburn bigamously, since nothing is said about the ending of his marriage to Kershaw. -- Jack of Oz ^{[your turn]} 00:18, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lascelles derivation

The name more likely comes from "la selle" or "the saddle" as the family brought the horses for William the Conqueror (also completing the Norman connection). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.249.77.3 (talk) 20:41, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
