Old talk page post
I reverted the last edit by BGoldenberg, because traditionally we keep office boxes and peer boxes separate. john k 07:14, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Consistency about the "Two Days" & "Four Days" Prime Ministers
Please see Talk:List of Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom for discussion about consistency on how to handle the events of February 1746 and June 1757 on the various lists on ministers and ministries. Timrollpickering 22:43, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Form of address in Titles
We refer to him as His Grace The Duke of Devonshire. I can accept that. When he was a viscount, wouldn't the corresponding form of address have been His Lordship? Whatever it was, why have it for one and not the others? All or nothing, I say - I'd prefer nothing. -- JackofOz (talk) 02:35, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Date and place of birth
Noticed that the profile does not include a place of birth so thought I would do a bit of digging and came across the following quote in "The prime ministers of Britain, 1721-1921: with a supplementary chapter to 1924" By Charles Clive Bigham Mersey, Viscount Charles Clive Bigham Mersey p51 - both the month and place of his birth are un-certain. See the page at Google books here. Just wondering where the 8 May date comes from and if we have a place of birth. Bjmullan (talk) 20:06, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

It seems he was born in London according to some sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GS-216.1993 (talk • contribs) 18:54, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
