7th Earl of Clarendon

[Leigh Rayment]

According to a death notice in 'The Times' the 7th Earl of Clrendon died on 4 July.

[Phoen]

He is succeeded by his only son George Edward Laurence Hyde Villiers
(born 1976). The new heir apparent is Edward George James Hyde
Villiers (born 2008). Next in line is, I think, Henry Hyde Villiers
(born 1931), a descendant of the 4th son of the 4th Earl, who has two
living sons (of three).
