Earl of Charleville, seeking to obtain an accurate genealogy of the Charleville family “for the purposes of a national work, having exclusive reference to the aristocracy of the empire”.

He expresses his particular interest in the present and preceding two generations of the Charleville family which “shall be a worthy……of Sir Egerton Brydger’s noble genealogies and such as can be published with your Lordship’s approval”.
