The wrong Dr. (John) Montagu
This page links the name "Dr. Montagu" to a page about John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwhich. This John Montagu was neither master of Trinity nor a contemporary of the Charles Montagu who was 1st Earl of Halifax. The John Montagu in question was not born until 1718, 3 years after Charles died.

Property
Gentlemen, did Lord Halifax possess any estates in or near Yorkshire(so as to support his title)? --Anglius 21:30, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

Infobox
This article has a long and complicated infobox, which duplicates the succession box. Do we really need both? This is obviously a strategic issue that ought to be discussed elsewhere. Peterkingiron (talk) 12:49, 15 May 2008 (UTC)


 * You're right: the info box is just dupicating the succession boxes. It should be shortened.  I'll be glad to do it if no one objects.  Coemgenus 13:00, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
