| 11 Apr 2012 | noted obituary which appeared in the Calgary "Herald" of 10 November 2011 in the name of Frederick Thomas Gerald Perceval. Although no title is mentioned, this may be the 12th Earl of Egmont. Standard works of reference state that the heir is Donald Perceval, born in 1954, but there seems to be doubt as to whether this man is an adopted son of the 11th Earl. If this is the case, he cannot inherit. I will await further details before updating the relevant entry under "Egmont" | ||||
