Questions and Notes[edit | edit source]

  1. Charles Wyndham, the actor and theatre owner, was born Charles Culverville.
  2. Sir Charles Wyndham Murray was really a Murray, not a Wyndham Murray; he may need to be moved at some point.
  3. If Mr. George Wyndham is the Right Hon. George Wyndham, who married Sibell Mary Lumley Grosvenor, then where was she? Her nephew Alfred Lumley, 10th Earl Scarbrough attended.
