Cousin Dunsany

edit

"A cousin is the 19th and present Lord Dunsany." Present Baron is the 21st. Source given is the 2003 Burke's Peerage, at which time it's have been the 20th. Perhaps he's some grade of cousin to all three, but this could be made much clearer, if someone has access to that citation, or some other giving their exact relationship. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 23:45, 30 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

It seems that his grandfather was Reginald Drax (according to this article), which if I'm counting on my fingers correctly makes him a second cousin once removed from the present (and 21st) baron. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 00:53, 31 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
