Foreign Born Lords of the English Realm
I am not sure whether this is a simple hoax, or what. Certainly Prince William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland wasn't in any position to be killed in a duel with "Lord Richard Brown" in 1793 as he had died in 1765. William IV wasn't king in 1793, George III was. I'm not sure whether WP:NFT or WP:NOR applies here, but the article is not verifiable. I presume that the last sentence, about the long-lost Australian heirs, explains why this was written. Anyway, delete seems to be the answer to the problem.

 * Delete. No references; more importantly, none turned up on searches for several of the people mentioned. Definitely a hoax. Zetawoof(&zeta;) 09:04, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - pure nonsense. Completely barmy. I'm not even sure that "Lords of the English Realm" is a valid or recognised term anyway. "Peers of the realm", yes, but not this I don't think. BTLizard 09:21, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
