Carriage accident?

edit

The article mentions nothing of his death. He was run over by a horse-drawn carriage. http://www.frogview.com His spirit was apparently caught on film, sitting in his favorite armchair. --RyanTee82 (talk) 06:34, 23 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

He was indeed run over by a horse drawn carriage but lived about seven weeks after the accident, dying at his London house in St James' Place.Cloptonson (talk) 12:20, 10 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Birthplace Question

edit

Could a citation be produced for the assertion he was born in Bedford. Other sources eg Complete Peerage and newspaper obituaries, state he was born in Barbadoes (while his father was governor).Cloptonson (talk) 12:20, 10 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
