    Political Frailty

    For majority of peerages that women can’t inherit I imagine for the generation having children in the last twenty years or so some members of the nobility are flying out to America and having gender selection IVF. For the current living 10 Lady Saltourn inherited it as her only brother was killed in WW2 fitting what you said. The rest are too young to be affected by the World Wars. A couple of these do have women heirs so female hereditary peers will not be extinct anytime soon.

    Maybe that was why. Barry/ie and Gar(r(y were not so common before WW2 so wouldn’t have been old man names in that era. Now they increasingly old man names (Particularly Barry) they not so common. My name is odd in that they were loads of old people with it but they all had the full version on their birth certificate (Which is a timeless name) but I don’t and that version is starting to date a bit.

    Nicholas Parsons

    Ex brother in law. His sister Sarah (former editor of Today on Radio 4) and Julian divorced in 1987. They did have a son together so obviously the family likely remained in touch and that boy is now effectively morning his uncle on top of his dad.
