Juliet Mary Preston's mother was Margaret Bond-Cabbell (Lady Preston)
which is probably where the Hon Richard acquired his additional
surname.

And presumably of the Bond-Cabell LG family of Cromer, featured in BLG
1952 edition

I've now had a chance to check the 1952 BLG. (I've access to all the
LGs as I'm in the National Archives today - principally to study a
warrant of Henry VIII to Thomas Cromwell, giving the latter permission
to append the Great Seal to letters patent creating Anne Boleyn
'Marquesse of Pembroke'. Interestingly, she's described as 'Lady Anne
Rochford' in the warrant. There's really nothing to beat the thrill of
handling and reading a document which is now nearly 500 years old and
bears the sign manual of one of the most famous kings of all time!)
Anyway, back to the Bond-Cabbells of Cromer. Margaret, Lady Preston is
the eldest dau. of the former head of that family, Benjamin Bond-
Cabbell (1858-92). As the eldest dau of a family with no obvious male
heir, it's understandable that the Cabbell name should pass down
through her. She had three younger sisters of whom Beatrice Evermar (b
1885) m a Barclay of the LG family of Leyton and had issue; and Evelyn
(b 1891) m a scion of the Earls of Gainsborough had had issue.

I believe he was the heir presumptive to the 6th Baron Manners, his
nephew.

The 6th Baron's second wife just had a baby girl on Feb. 21 (see
Michael's post of March 8). His Lordship now has 3 daughters
including two from his first marriage.

The late Richard's eldest son, Edward Preston (b. 1948) now becomes
heir presumptive. Looking at my Debrett's 2003 (the volume I have
handy), he is married but with only 1 daughter. His younger brother,
Rupert Francis Henry, b. 1950, has 2 sons.

Yes, Edward Preston is hp to the barony. He still has the one child, a
dau born in 1981. His brother Rupert is the next heir and still has
two sons. After that comes the youngest brother Thomas Benjamin b
1954, married with two sons and a dau. After them comes the late Hon
Richard Neville Cabbell Manners' younger brother, the Hon Thomas
Jasper C B (b 1929) and then his eld. son Charles Henry, b 1957 and
married with a son and 2 daus. After that Charles Henry's younger
brother Arthur Roger b 1959, who also is married with a son and 2
daus. Finally the youngest brother Robert Hugh, who is married with 3
sons. So some 16 heirs in line
