+ Lucy van Cutsem

[Michael Rhodes]

Confusion! From the Daily Telegraph:

van CUTSEM
Lucy died peacefully at home on November 29th. Beloved wife of
Geoffrey and adored mother of Aubrey, Venetia and Claire. Private
family funeral. Service of Thanksgiving on Thursday December 11th 2.30
p.m. at St Michael Church, Well near Bedale, N Yorks, DL8 2PX.

I know of only one Geoffrey van Cutsem, who married 1969, Sarah
McCorquodale, who died recently. Just who is Lucy, and are her
children Aubrey, Venetia and Claire from a previous marriage????

Yes to all of that! Geoffrey van Cutsem divorced his first wife Sarah
in 2003 and marr Mrs Lucy Hester Price (nee Cartwright) in 2006 and
the children you mention are from the earlier, Price, marriage. A sad
coincidence that both Mrs van Cutsems should die in the same year.
(The details are on p P902 of Debretts 08)
