Lt Col Oliver Raven St John BREAKWELL, LVO, MBE (born 1945), formerly Gentleman Usher to The Queen, is a great-great-great grandson of William James ST JOHN, who was himself a natural son of the 3rd Viscount Bolingbroke & 4th Viscount St John.

George Richard ST JOHN, 3rd Viscount Bolingbroke & 4th Viscount St John (5 III 1761 - 11 XII 1824), was the elder son of Frederick ST JOHN, 2nd Viscount Bolingbroke & 3rd Viscount St John (21 XII 1732 - 5 V 1787), and his wife (married 8 IX 1757, divorced 1768), Lady Diana SPENCER (24 III 1734 - 1 VIII 1808), elder daughter of the 3rd Duke of Marlborough. On 26 February 1783 he married his first wife, Charlotte COLLINS (died 1803), daughter of his former tutor, and by her had two sons and a daughter. After the birth of these three children, he began a relationship with his own half sister, (Anne) Mary Day BEAUCLERK (1766 - 23 VII 1851), the daughter of his mother by her second marriage to Topham BEAUCLERK (a grandson of the 1st Duke of St Albans and great grandson of King Charles II and Nell Gwynn), and by her had four sons. By 1794, Lord Bolingbroke had abandoned his half sister and their sons for a Belgian noblewoman, Isabella Charlotte Antoinette Sophia Hompesch, Baroness von Hompesch. He married her bigamously and then lived with her in obscurity, firstly in Europe, then in Britain, and finally in America.

Lord Bolingbroke appears to have had at least eight children by Isabella, Baroness von Hompesch, to whom he was legally married on 1 August 1804, after the death of his first wife. There were three sons born subsequent to this lawful marriage (the eldest of whom was the great-great-great grandfather of the present 9th Viscount Bolingbroke & 10th Viscount St John), but at least three sons and two daughters born prior to that were illegitimate, including the second son, William James ST JOHN (c.1797 - 10 III 1845), who married Anne Neville PEDLEY and had an only son, Lt Col John Henry Herbert ST JOHN (4 XII 1835 - 20 IV 1876).

Lt Col John Henry Herbert ST JOHN was married on 12 April 1860 to (as her first husband) Victoria Elizabeth MAUNSELL (1836 - 1920), by whom he had, with other issue, an eldest son, General George Francis William ST JOHN, CB (19 I 1861 - 19 X 1937), who was married, firstly, in 1883 to Emilia Alexandrina OLIVER (1857 - 18 IX 1910), and secondly, on 14 December 1916 to Gladys Gregg PHILIPPS (1883 - 15 I 1953), youngest daughter of Sir Charles Edward Gregg PHILIPPS, 1st Bt of Picton. Gen St John's eldest daughter by his first marriage, Nina Oliver ST JOHN (1887 - 28 IV 1951) was married, firstly, on 28 February 1911 to General John Redmond HARTWELL, CB, DSO (7 V 1887 - 19 IX 1970), grandson of Sir Broderick Hartwell, 2nd Bt, by whom she had a daughter, before divorcing in 1921.

Nina Oliver ST JOHN was married, secondly, in 1921 to Colonel Denis Jackson ATKINSON, OBE (5 VI 1897 - 27 III 1952), by whom she had one son and two daughters. The elder daughter, Daphne Pamela ATKINSON (3 VII 1921 - 18 II 1989) was married, firstly, in 1945 to Ernest Raven Watmough BREAKWELL (1910 - 25 I 1988; he had been married at least once before and contracted a subsequent marriage in 1958); they were the parents of Lt Col Oliver Raven St John BREAKWELL, and also had a daughter, Georgina M BREAKWELL (birth registered Q1 1948 - Heywood, Lancashire).

Lt Col BREAKWELL is also descended, through his maternal grandfather, Colonel Denis Jackson ATKINSON, from Mary Anne COSTELLO, the mother of the Rt Hon George CANNING (11 IV 1770 - 8 VIII 1827), Prime Minister from 12 April 1827 until his death. Colonel Atkinson was the elder son of Dr Jackson Arthur ATKINSON (20 V 1867 - 22 XI 1929) and his first wife (married 6 XII 1893), Blanche Myra CRUTTWELL (10 II 1869 - 25 XII 1904), who was the daughter of Thomas Harry CRUTTWELL (18 VIII 1848 - 8 III 1925) and his first wife (married 24 XII 1866), Myra Rose GUNTHORPE (1847 - 10 VII 1872). Thomas Harry CRUTTWELL was the fifth son of Robert CRUTTWELL (28 XI 1809 - 2 VIII 1858) and his wife (married 30 VI 1835), Marianne Emma NOAD (3 XII 1813 - VII 1882), daughter of Humphrey Minchin NOAD (5 VI 1778 - 7 III 1845) and his wife (married 17 X 1811), Maria HUNN (27 IV 1788 - 10 III 1860). Maria HUNN was the daughter of Richard HUNN (10 I 1745 - 1803) and his wife (married 11 II 1783), Mary Ann COSTELLO (27 I 1747 or 1750 - 10 III 1827), who was the mother by her first marriage of the Rt Hon George CANNING.
