Query from a Russian
editI would like to know if the first owner of this mansion was related to Count William Fermor who led the Russian armies against Frederick the Great in the bloody Battle of Zorndorf. Russian references say that his parents "hailed from England", nothing more definite. --Ghirla -трёп- 19:25, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
Response to: Ghirlandajo I came across this information (quoted below)on a web page called "Fermor One-Name Study." The William Fermor's of Easton Neston profiled in wikipedia don't refer to this event. How or if the William Fermor who went to Russia was related to these Fermor's is unclear.
"On 18 June 1758, Empress Elisabeth of Russia, bestowed upon Governor-General William Fermor, the merit of Count of the Roman Empire. I understand that a book on the Russian families of Fermor and Stenbok-Fermor is currently being written in 2010."
...you posted the question just eight years ago! --David J Gill (talk) 11:45, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Moved to Easton Neston house, and parish page moved as requested — Amakuru (talk) 13:04, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
– Its not clear what the house is called, the Ordnance Survey does call it Easton Neston Ho while Historic England calls it just Easton Neston however that appears to also be referring to the gardens as well. As Easton Neston (parish) deals with the former village, WP:CONCEPTDAB could be used here. Crouch, Swale (talk) 14:27, 18 July 2018 (UTC)--Relisting. Dekimasuよ! 17:10, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
- Move to Easton Neston house per WP:NATURALDAB, WP:NCCAPS, MOS:CAPS, etc. This is exactly the same kind of case as Siamese cat, Graves–Basedow disease, Montessori school, etc. Just because a proper name appears in the phrase doesn't make the entire phrase a proper name. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 03:54, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
- I'd be fine with that. I thought it would be a proper noun if its part of the name, see Warwick (district)/Warwick District, small d is being used for disambiguation, while capital being part of the name. Crouch, Swale (talk) 08:09, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
- Historic England calls the house Easton Neston House (https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1189225). The listing without "House" is for the gardens. Peter James (talk) 17:55, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
