|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
According to 'The Times' of 15 April 1820
"Sir William, the third baronet, was drowned in his |
|
|
|
chariot and four, returning home from
Lichfield, July 8, 1728, between 7 and 8 o'clock in the |
|
|
|
evening, passing a little brook in a village
called Long, in the high road. This accident |
|
|
|
|
happened by the sudden breaking down of a
mill-dam at a small distance, occasioned by a |
|
|
|
violent thunder-shower, which brought down a
body of water that sunk the chariot in the |
|
|
|
very moment of its crossing the brook. The
coachman was carried down the torrent into an |
|
|
|
orchard, about 100 yards from the place, and
saved himself in the top of an apple-tree." |

Sir Capel Charles Wolseley, 9th baronet
[creation of 1745] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sir Capel was killed in a cycling accident in
August 1923. The following report appeared in 'The |
|
|
|
Times' on 28 August 1923:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir
Capel Wolseley, Bt., died from injuries received yesterday in a cycling
accident at |
|
|
|
|
Blythburgh
Common, near Southwold [on the Suffolk coast]. He was cycling to visit a
relative |
|
|
|
when
he suddenly turned in front of a motor-car which was approaching from behind.
The driver |
|
|
|
of
the car turned off the road on to the common, but was unable to avoid a
collision, and Sir |
|
|
|
Capel
was thrown into the road, and became unconscious. He was conveyed to
Southwold |
|
|
|
Hospital, where he died fifteen minutes after
admission.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On
29 August 1923, 'The Times' reported that 'An inquest on the body of Sir
Capel Wolseley, |
|
|
|
Bt., who was killed while cycling on Blythburgh
Common on Monday, was held yesterday evening |
|
|
|
at
Southwold. Miss Winifred Wolseley, a sister, said that Sir Capel's sight was
bad. Mr. Walter |
|
|
|
Charles
Tarrant said he was motoring across the common, and noticed Sir Capel going
in the |
|
|
|
same
direction. In order to pass the driver of his car took the right side of the
road, but just as |
|
|
|
they reached him Sir Capel swerved in front of
the car. The driver, in evidence, said that he |
|
|
|
sounded his hooter twice. Sir Capel gave no
indication that he intended to cross the road. The |
|
|
|
lane leading to the cottage to which he was
going was invisible from the road. Medical evidence |
|
|
|
showed that death was due to a fracture of the
skull. The jury returned a verdict of "accidental |
|
|
|
death" and exonerated the driver of the car.' |

Sir Reginald Beatty Wolseley, 10th baronet
[creation of 1745] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sir Reginald became somewhat of a celebrity in
America in 1930 when it was discovered that, |
|
|
|
while working as an elevator operator in a
hotel in the small town of Waterloo, Iowa, he had |
|
|
|
some years previously succeeded to the
baronetcy of Wolseley. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Following his death in July 1933 the article
below appeared in the 'Chicago Daily Tribune':- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'London July 10 - The "elevator boy
baronet," Sir Reginald Beatty Wolseley - known as "Dick" |
|
|
|
to the folks back in Waterloo, Iowa - is dead.
His death occurred at Capel cottage, Berrynarbor, |
|
|
|
North Devon, it was announced today. He was 61
years old. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir Reginald, the son of Dr. Cadwallader
Brooke Wolseley of Dublin and a cousin of Admiral Earl |
|
|
|
Beatty, lived a fantastic, "fairy
story" life. In 1897, at the age of 25, he left England for the |
|
|
|
United States and after years of wandering
wound up in Waterloo as an elevator operator in a |
|
|
|
hotel. He worked there 14 years. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'He acquired his title in 1923 on the death of
his cousin, Sir Capel Charles Wolseley, but liked |
|
|
|
his job in Iowa so well that he stayed there
and kept his title a secret. He preferred to be |
|
|
|
known as "Dick." He attributed his
failure to get a better paying position to fallen arches. "I |
|
|
|
might have been a go-getter," he said,
"but my poor feet wouldn't stand any rushing about." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In May, 1930, however, his secret came out.
Miss Marion Elizabeth Baker, a Devon nurse, |
|
|
|
went to Waterloo as a messenger from Sir
Reginald's mother, who had just died. Miss Baker |
|
|
|
revealed that she was fulfilling a death-bed
wish made by his mother to bring Sir Reginald |
|
|
|
back to England. The day after her arrival she
married Sir Reginald. He was 58, she was 40. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The bride found, however, that getting Dick to
England was not such an easy task. She |
|
|
|
|
herself left the day after their marriage with
the understanding that Sir Reginald would follow |
|
|
|
as soon as he could straighten up his elevator
affairs. The baronet, though, was too attached |
|
|
|
to his lift. He refused to budge. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Furthermore, that fall he obtained a divorce.
He said his wife harassed him by sending so many |
|
|
|
cablegrams coaxing him to come home. Undaunted,
Lady Wolseley that December [1931] once |
|
|
|
again travelled to Waterloo and used all her
powers of persuasion. She won her point. The |
|
|
|
divorce was set aside in January, 1932, and
this time both Sir Reginald and his wife sailed for |
|
|
|
England.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the death of her husband, Lady Wolseley
ceased to use the title, and insisted she be |
|
|
|
known
as Mrs. Marion Baker Wolseley. She survived Sir Reginald by less than a year,
dying |
|
|
|
on 20 June 1934 from spinal injuries caused by
falling out of a bedroom window in her cottage. |

Sir Garnet Wolseley, 12th baronet [creation of
1745] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In
his book "My Forty Years with Debrett," [Robert Hale, London, 1963]
the former editor of |
|
|
|
that publication, Cyril Hankinson, includes a
chapter entitled 'Missing Heirs,' in which he |
|
|
|
|
discusses a number of titles where he was able
to establish the identity of the rightful heir. |
|
|
|
One of these titles was the baronetcy of
Wolseley. The relevant section in the book relating |
|
|
|
to this baronetcy is as follows:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Another baronetcy which engaged our attention
about the same time [i.e. the late 1940s] was |
|
|
|
that of Wolseley of Mount Wolseley, County
Carlow, an Irish Baronetcy which had been created |
|
|
|
in 1745. We had noticed that the Reverend Sir
William Augustus Wolseley, who was over eighty |
|
|
|
years of age, had no heir clearly indicated in
Debrett although there were a number of male |
|
|
|
members of the family listed who were in the
line of succession. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'To clear up the position we called upon the
Press once again to help us, and it seemed very |
|
|
|
soon that our problem had been solved, for we
were put into touch with a Mr. Noel Wolseley, |
|
|
|
who was living in Manchester, New Hampshire,
U.S.A. He was a naturalized American citizen, |
|
|
|
but that would not have been any bar to his
taking up the title if he had come over to this |
|
|
|
country. To us there did not appear to be
anyone with a better claim, so I regret to say that |
|
|
|
we went so far as to inform him that in our
view he was heir to the baronetcy. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'However, when in 1950 Sir Augustus Wolseley
died, and considerable publicity was given to his |
|
|
|
death
in the newspapers. I received a letter from a Mrs. Richard Wolseley, of
Wallasey, |
|
|
|
|
Cheshire, who had read of the death of Sir
Augustus. She enquired whether I thought her late |
|
|
|
husband
might have been related to the family as the name was rather uncommon. She
gave a |
|
|
|
few details concerning her husband and his
father, and mentioned that she had a son, and I felt |
|
|
|
convinced that they must be members of the
family whom he had not hitherto listed in Debrett. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'I
investigated the matter fully, and found that not only was she related to the
late Sir |
|
|
|
|
Augustus, but that her son, Garnet Wolseley, a
cobbler by trade, was undoubtedly the new |
|
|
|
baronet. I therefore passed the information
onto my friend, Mr. F.J. Dadd, and in due course |
|
|
|
he obtained all the necessary evidence to
enable him to place Garnet Wolseley's name on the |
|
|
|
Roll of the Baronetage. When interviewed, after
his marriage to a local girl some three months |
|
|
|
later, Wolseley - who it was stated used to
mend about eighty pairs of shoes a
week and earn |
|
|
|
about
£5 10s - candidly admitted that business had improved a lot since he had
become a |
|
|
|
baronet, 'but,' said he, 'I still like my
customers to call me George.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'A little later the cobbler baronet emigrated
to Canada, where he is still living in Ontario. As he |
|
|
|
has
now been married for over ten years and has no children his American kinsman
Noel |
|
|
|
|
Wolseley
is his heir. Noel, however, is no longer very enthusiastic about the
possibility of |
|
|
|
becoming a baronet. I 'let him down' once by
informing him that he was Sir Augustus' heir and |
|
|
|
his faith in me was shaken. Moreover he is now
over seventy years of age, and has no son, |
|
|
|
and the baronet is twenty-six years younger
than he is. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'If Sir Garnet dies without a son and Noel
predeceases him there will be another intriguing |
|
|
|
situation
for next in line is Robert Benjamin Wolseley born in 1873. Nobody
knows where he |
|
|
|
is, or whether he ever married. After him comes
James Douglas Wolseley, born in 1903, who |
|
|
|
lives in Texas, but he would not be able to
claim the title unless it could be proved that Robert |
|
|
|
Benjamin died without leaving male issue.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
present baronet is Sir James Douglas Wolseley, son of the James Douglas
Wolseley |
|
|
|
|
mentioned above, although he appears to have
taken no steps to prove his succession, since |
|
|
|
the baronetcy currently appears on the listing
included in the webpage of the Standing Council |
|
|
|
of the Baronetage of those baronetcies to which
no succession has been proved. |

Sir John Godfrey Worsley-Taylor, 3rd baronet |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sir John died in July 1952, after falling down
a set of stairs, as reported in the London "Daily |
|
|
|
Mail" of 19 July 1952:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Captain Sir John Godfrey Worsley-Taylor,
36-year-old war-time Scots Guard officer, was found |
|
|
|
dead yesterday in a top-floor mansion flat at
Queen's Gate-gardens, S.W., by two detectives |
|
|
|
who called to report that his stolen car had
been recovered. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'They found Sir John, in a grey lounge suit, at
the foot of a small flight of stairs inside the flat. |
|
|
|
He had been dead for almost a week. A
post-mortem last night showed that he had died of a |
|
|
|
broken neck. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mrs. Elsie Murphy, 40-year-old housekeeper in
a flat below, said: "I was in the kitchen on |
|
|
|
Saturday evening when I heard a bump upstairs
at about 7.15 p.m. It sounded like someone |
|
|
|
falling heavily. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'A police spokesman said last night: "Sir
John must have tripped at the top of the stairs, of |
|
|
|
which there are about 16. There is no suspicion
of foul play. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
flat is owned by Lady Mary Stanley-Clark, 42, who returned to this country
three years |
|
|
|
ago after her second husband died in Italy. Sir
John frequently occupied the flat while she |
|
|
|
was away. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir
John's marriage in 1942 to Miss Anne Paget, only daughter of the late Captain
J. Paget, |
|
|
|
former huntsman and author, of Meltom Mowbray,
was dissolved in 1950. They had one |
|
|
|
|
daughter. Sir John was the bthird baronet,
succeeding his father, Lieut.-Colonel Sir James |
|
|
|
Worsley-Taylor, in 1933.' |

Sir Horatio Henry Wraxall, 4th baronet |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wraxall was convicted of fraud in October 1878
and was sentenced to twelve months' |
|
|
|
|
imprisonment. The following report is from 'The
Times' of 30 October 1878:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir Henry Horatio [sic] Wraxall and George
Roskell Crowley, thirty, clerk, were indicted, at |
|
|
|
the Old Bailey, for unlawfully conspiring
together to obtain money by false pretences, and with |
|
|
|
intent to defraud. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'It was alleged for the prosecution that the
prisoners sought to take an office at Duchy- |
|
|
|
|
chambers,
137A, Strand, of Mr. Brophy, a builder, and that the reference given was
the |
|
|
|
|
"Merchant's
Joint-Stock Bank (Limited)," with which Sir Henry Wraxall was said to
be |
|
|
|
|
connected. A satisfactory reply was received,
and the office was let; the names of |
|
|
|
|
"Wraxall and Co.," of "Mr.
Crowley." and of the "South African General Stores and Trading |
|
|
|
|
Company (Limited)" being painted upon the
door-posts. Crowley then ordered from a printer |
|
|
|
in the neighbourhood various forms and
memoranda relating to the company, stating that |
|
|
|
|
he was the agent of "Sir James
Graham," the manager of the company, who was then on |
|
|
|
|
his way to England from South Africa. With
these preparations the prisoners advertised in |
|
|
|
various country newspapers to the following
effect:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"South Africa - Wanted, several
respectable, energetic, experienced young men as managers |
|
|
|
and assistants in the drapery, hardware, boot,
drug, spirits, crockery, clothing, grocery, and |
|
|
|
implements departments of new stores about to
be opened by a large trading company etc. |
|
|
|
Good salaries, and passage paid. Address
'Africus' (enclosing addressed envelope), City News |
|
|
|
Rooms, Ludgate-circus." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
result of so tempting an advertisement was the receipt of hundreds of offers
for the |
|
|
|
various situations. Upon their receipt an
application form was sent, and a guinea demanded as |
|
|
|
a guarantee that the applicant would fill the
situation to which he was nominated. Afterwards |
|
|
|
other monies were received, and the selected
applicants were ordered to be in readiness to |
|
|
|
proceed to Cape Town by a ship called the Edith
Carmichael, to sail on a certain day. The |
|
|
|
applicants gave up their situations with that
view, but there was no ship of the name |
|
|
|
|
mentioned, or any other, prepared to take them
to the Cape, and they, therefore, lost both |
|
|
|
their
employment and the money paid to the prisoners. When the prisoner Crowley
was |
|
|
|
|
arrested, various papers connected with the
alleged fraud were found upon him, and it was |
|
|
|
proved that the prisoner Wraxall was equally
cognisant of and intimately connected with all |
|
|
|
the proceedings. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mr. Brophy, the landlord of Duchy-chambers,
137A, Strand, proved letting a room there to |
|
|
|
the prisoners, who he understood were connected
with the Stock Exchange. Wraxall gave |
|
|
|
him a reference in Great Russell-street, and
said he had command over certain shares in the |
|
|
|
Stock Exchange. Crowley said very little
indeed, for Wraxall did all the talking. They never |
|
|
|
paid
a farthing for the room. Wraxall did not say he was a baronet, for if he had
witness |
|
|
|
|
would not have taken him without further
inquiry. He had the words "Wraxall and Co," painted |
|
|
|
on the door-posts, and beneath them the name of
Crowley, as manager. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Proof was given by various persons at York,
Ashton-under-Lyne, Liverpool, and elsewhere of |
|
|
|
seeing the advertisements in the newspapers, of
coming to London and paying the deposits |
|
|
|
demanded, and then hearing nothing more of the
matter. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The jury, in the result, convicted both
prisoners, and they were sentenced to twelve months' |
|
|
|
imprisonment each.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This incident does not appear to be the first
time that Wraxall was mixed up in dubious affairs, |
|
|
|
since an Inspector Hagan stated that for some
years Wraxall had been connected with various |
|
|
|
bubble
companies and swindling transactions. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wraxall was subsequently committed to the
Wandsworth Lunatic Asylum on 1 April 1881, where |
|
|
|
he died, completely destitute, in early April
1882, from 'general paralysis.' |
