[Coldstreamer]

[GraemeClarke]

I have a copy at home; if no-one beats me to it I'll have a look (after the final of Only Connect can't miss the divine Ms Coren-Mitchell ). Also Who's Who.

[Coldstreamer]

Thanks - and thats a very good reason to wait until later

[Coldstreamer]

I think he will be there as the surname seems quite blue-blooded and the family home(s) is rather large

Have you seen this, CS?

I googled "Hugh Cholmondeley MC".

There is also ths article in

The Singapore Free Press and Mercantile Advertiser (1884-1942), 16 May 1931, Page 8 ARRESTED DIPLOMAT

I don't subscribe to Debretts, but this may be of interest:

Hugh Cholmondeley, born 18 October 1899. (I suspect it should be 1898). Son of Reginald Harry Cholmondeley & Florence Sophia.

Blimey! We must be related!!

[Guest]

Have you tried "The Aristocracy and the Great War" by Gliddon?

The Cholmondleys listed in Cheshire (Cholmondeley Castle) and Norfolk (Houghton Hall) are related to the 4th Marquess (George Cholmondeley 1858-1923) and his sons the Earl of RockSavage (George Horatio) and Lord George Hugo as well as the youngest son of the 3rd Marquess (Charles). All four served. No mention of a Hugh Cholmondeley but doubtless he is related in some way. As you doubtless know the family is rather large.

Gliddon's book only indexes the family seats and not the titles or surnames. If you know of any other Cholmondeley home locations or houses I can check for you. Sadly the Hampshire house mentioned in your other thread does not get a mention.

He has an entry in the IWM's Lives of the Great War but I can't get that through the firewall

All it shows the the info based on the MIC. Nothing else. No firewall experienced... MG

[Coldstreamer]

Thanks all - gives me some more to go on.

His family seem to move house a lot, or just owned a lot and that's where they happened to be at census time

[Le_Treport]

I've just had a look through Burke's Peerage 107th edition. Couldn't see this Hugh at first glance. Any ideas of parents/location?

names correct as above

[Coldstreamer]

maybe the blue blood was thinner than I hoped

[Guest]

The novelist Mary Cholmondeley lived at Tolmers.. They were the part of the family that went into the church, I believe. Possibly directly related. MG

Maybe, but he still gets a mention in the Plantagenet Roll (See #10).

The DOB fits.

Unfortunately, I don't subscribe to The Times Archive and don't know anyone who does. Sorry.
