GRAFTON


The ducal title of Grafton was created on 11-9-1675 for Henry Fitzroy (1663-1690), since 16-8-1672 Earl of Euston, illegitimate son of King Charles II of England, Scotland and Ireland.
The dukes of Grafton are thus male line descendants of the House of Stuart, whose first known ancestor was Breton nobleman Alan, son of Flaald, who received ca. 1100 from King Henry I of England the barony of Mileham in Norfolk. One of his sons became the ancestor of the FitzAlan family, the Earls of Arundel, another, Walter, was made Steward of Scotland by King David I of Scotland. His descendants were the High Stewards of Scotland and became Earls of Lennox in 1488. Matthew Stewart, 4.Earl of Lennox (1516-1571) was third in line for the Scottish succession, as descendant of Princess Mary of Scotland, daughter of King James II. He married Margaret Douglas, the half sister of King James V and daughter of King Henry VII of England. In 1565 Matthew married his son Henry, Lord Darnley, to Mary I Queen of Scots. The son of this couple, James, not only inherited Scotland in 1567 but England as well in 1603, uniting the two kingdoms.

  1. 39. Edith Anne Cook * ...
    daughter of John Mason Cook, himself son of Thomas Cook, travel pioneer. According to Wikipedia, Fortune, Duchess of Grafton's mother Beatrice Williams was a great-granddaughter of Thomas Cook. One of Edith Cook's brothers, Ernest Cook, was also a noted philanthropist (but a poor businessman like his other brothers). The Cook brothers sold Thomas Cook in 1928. This needs non-Wikipedia verification.

  2. also, the Duke of Grafton died in April 2011, so this needs to be updated. No issue as yet for the 12th Duke and his Duchess.
