Moorhouse Inn, Leeds LS11 5NQ
New Moon
Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson attended the nuptials on Saturday of Harry Cotterell and Carolyn Beckwith-Smith, a former flatmate of Miss F and a bossom pal. Taking down my ancient, worn, copy of Burke's I detect numerous family connections between Mr Cotterell and the future Princess Andrew. Harry's great-grandfather married Lady Evelyn Gordon-Lennox (d. 1922), daughter of the 7th Duke of Richmond. Sarah descends from this ducal house and eventually from Charles II. The Beckwith-Smiths evade me because they are landed gentry and not peerage and I haven't yet acquired any LG volumes. Carolyn is a cousin of the Princess of Wales's lady-in-waiting Anne B-S, and of the Duchess of Kent's lady-in-waiting Jane Napier (nee Pugh).
