Record Holder?
[edit]I deduced, based on the date of the 1931 General Election and his own death in 1999, that he had outlived his time as an MP by 68 years and 45 days, without subsequently serving in the House of Lords. (Pardon if I miscount.) Is that a record for "life after Westminster"?Cloptonson (talk) 13:51, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

File at The National Archives
[edit]Does the file mentioned here refer - same name, but Coldstream Guards. Jackiespeel (talk) 18:14, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- Likelihood is that it is the same man, given the full name. The sources given for his being a Grenadier are not infallible. His newspaper obituary cannot rule out human error on the part of the compiler and as subjects of Who's Who submit a form for entry details, there might have been a mistake on his part over the years. Guards Regiments I understand jealously guard (so to speak) their regimental identities. I wonder if an obituary appeared in the regimental magazine (although it is usually those known to the regimental association and to current serving personnel who appear in such publications).Cloptonson (talk) 07:25, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
