Queen's Call to Arms! | Sunshine Coast Daily
10/2/2020 YOUR STORY: Queen's Call to Arms! | Sunshine Coast Daily YOUR STORY: Queen's Call to Arms! by GEORGE_HELON 2 14th Sep 2020 10:37 AM Just before his eldest daughter Catherine Middleton married His Royal Highness Prince William, the future Duke of Cambridge on 29 April 2011 in Westminster Abbey, Michael Middleton was granted a coat of arms by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as a personal gift. On 25 May 2018 Meghan Markle, now the Duchess of Sussex was granted a coat of arms in her own right by the Queen; but in Meghan's case - and partly because of her unruly clan - the privilege extended neither to her father, nor her family. By Letters Patent issued under Crown authority, I GEORGE WILLIAM HELON Esquire of Toowoomba have just been granted a coat of arms, crest, badge and the exemplification of a standard by Her Majesty's College of Arms in London (College Reference: Grants 23/2019). Her Majesty the Queen is the 'Fount of Honour' from whom all titles, grants of arms, orders of chivalry and honours are conferred; they are Our Sovereign's gift and prerogative. Under English heraldic law, a coat of arms and armorial ensigns can be granted to persons of eminence or good standing in national or local life and for exceptional service to society at large. A grant of arms confers upon a person and his or her legitimate descendants the exclusive right to bear a particular coat of arms or armorial bearings in perpetuity. Contrary to what some may have read on the internet and believe, there is no such thing as a coat of arms for a particular surname; coats of arms belong to specific individuals, their families and descendants.

Of course, the Duke’s and Duchess’s studies at the University of St Andrews are well known; less well known is that the Duchess’s sister, “Pippa” Middleton, studied at your blogger’s University of Edinburgh.

Origins of Grosvenor House
Origins of Grosvenor House Until the 1730s, the site on which the Grosvenor House Hotel now stands was meadow and pasture land. The land was owned by the Grosvenor family, early property developers who eventually became the richest urban landlords in England. With their financial success came social advancement and in 1874 the head of the Grosvenor family was created the first Duke of Westminster by Queen Victoria. The first building on the site was a large detached house located on the south side of Upper Grosvenor Street, and its first owner was Lord Chetwynd. The house passed through several owners, including the Duke of Cumberland, son of King George II and commander at the Battle of Culloden (1746). The Duke of Gloucester, brother of King George III, acquired the house in the 1760s and lived there for 40 years. The house became known as Gloucester House. The property changed hands again in 1806 when Lord Grosvenor purchased it. When he moved in, in 1808, the house was re-named Grosvenor House. It remained the Grosvenor family’s London home for over 100 years. At the outbreak of the First World War in 1914, the house was put at the disposal of the Government, and occupied by the Food Controller’s Department until 1920. By then the Duke of Westminster had decided not to re-occupy the house, so it was sold. The purchaser was a commercial speculator Mr A.O. Edwards. It was Edwards who built what is now the Grosvenor House Hotel between 1927 and 1929. Building the Hotel Alfred Octavius Edwards, founder and chairman of Doncaster-based Edcaster Ltd, acquired the lease of Grosvenor House in 1925 and formed a company, Grosvenor House Ltd, to develop the site.

The Howard and De Vere Women in the Late Fifteenth Century
Victims of Attainder: The Howard and de Vere Women in the Late Fifteenth Century Anne Crawford. Public Record Office Most English estates and businesses in the later Middle Ages would have been run less efficiently with.ollt the active cooperation of the master's lady. Many proved quite capable of running the entire enterprise when deprived either temporarily or pennanently of their husbands. As the other papers in this collection have indicated, many medieval women were as competent and as determined as their twentieth century counterparts. Yet there was one essential difference. The independent legal rights of a medieval wife were nonexistent and only as a widow was a woman able to exercise some control over her property and her future. While her husband was alive the two were regarded as one being in law. For most women thi s was merely academic, but the wife of a man convicted of treason might, at worst, find herself left with little more than her life and the gown she stood up in. The full rigours of the law were usually modified, but the degree of modification often depended on the amount of influence a wife or widow could bring to bear. It was arbitrary and could never be wholly relied upon. This paper is intended to illustrate the basic weakness of a woman's position if the male members of her family were charged with treason. To salvage as much of the family property as she could, she needed to influence the king in her favour and to do that she really needed the support of a politically powerful man.

For one, over time colleagues suggested that I pull together some of my articles, unpublished conference papers and essays into one volume for easy access. More recently, for four years I taught an upper-level course entitled The Tudor Kings at the University of Illinois at Chicago as a Visiting Professor. Students made a similar proposition with the addition of asking me to include “mini-Introductions” with anecdotes concerning how each piece materialized. I had assigned them several of my articles and essays to read as part of the class and they often asked about the process, the relationships between historians and how a project even came into being—interesting tidbits that usually never see the light of day.

The History of the Rebellion in the Year 1745
Charles Edward Stuart THE HISTORY OF THE REBELLION IN THE YEAR 1745. By JOHN HOME, Esq. LONDON: Printed by A. Strahan. New-Street Square; FOR T. CADELL, JUN. AND W. DAVIES IN THE STRAND. 1802 TO THE KING. SIR, YOUR MAJESTY, at every crisis of a most eventful reign, hath acted in such a manner, as to captivate the hearts of your people, who love a brave and steady Prince. It becomes not one whose praise may be thought partial, to celebrate the virtues of his Sovereign; for the first book I published was dedicated to Your Majesty, then Prince of Wales: and when his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland presented my petition, for leave to dedicate this History to Your Majesty, the petition was granted, in terms that I shall be proud of as long as I live. I am, with the most profound respect, SIR, YOUR MAJESTY’S Most faithful subject, And most obedient Humble servant, JOHN HOME. PREFACE. ISTORY assumes various forms, and attains different degrees of excellence, from the H importance of the subject, from those opportunities the Author has had to know the truth, and from the manner in which he relates the most interesting events of that period he hath chosen. IT is universally acknowledged, that the most complete instruction and entertainment are to be found in histories, written by those illustrious persons, who have transmitted to posterity an account of the great actions which they themselves performed. SMALL is the number of such historians; and at this day, Xenophon and Cæsar seem to stand unrivalled and alone.

THE ILLUSTRIOUS HOUSE of HANOVER Ann Lyon
Plymouth Law and Criminal Justice Review (2015) 1 THE ILLUSTRIOUS HOUSE OF HANOVER Ann Lyon1 The illustrious House of Hanover, And Protestant succession To them obedience do I swear While they can hold possession And in my faith and loyalty, I never more will falter And George my lawful king shall be! Until the times do alter. Anon. The Vicar of Bray, eighteenth-century satirical song Abstract The Hanoverian kings have attracted none of the affection the popular imagination accords to the Tudors and Stuarts, still less the romanticism. They are dismissed as a boorish bunch of Germans, with the possible exception of George III, who went mad and lost America, and perhaps George IV, who left the Brighton Pavilion as a monument to extravagance and had a decidedly colourful matrimonial history. When a reporter described the Queen as a 'scowly, jowlly Hanoverian', he was not being complimentary, and even Diana Princess of Wales once attributed many of her problems to marrying into a ‘German’ family. The truth is, as usual, more complex and infinitely more interesting, but, regrettably, little official notice is being taken of the 300th anniversary of the Hanoverian succession this year. This article seeks to redress the balance a little. Keywords: House of Hanover, royal succession, constitutional history, Act of Settlement Introduction Apart from a diversion through the female line in the person of Queen Victoria, and a change of name to Windsor, the House of Hanover has remained in place since 1714, to become the most enduring dynasty to
