( 8 ) According to some accounts this Frederick William [and not Godert, as given in the text abovej was the 4th Earl, being br. (not cousin) of the 3rd Earl, and s. of the 2ud Earl. The succession as given in the text is from " Lodge." It seeing hardly probable that the then [17SSI] Earl should have described (to the Editor of that work) his grandfather as a younger s. of the 1st Earl, had the succession been from father to son and had ui« said grandfather been (consequently) the 2nd Earl. ( ) As to the wife of this Frederick Christian see p. 178, note " f." VI The decision of the House enabling him so to do seems questionable as it appears he was an alien. The Crown, however, would not have been bound by such decision.
