For #dukesandprinces Sunday evening, read how Ireland has native princes too: the MacCarthy princes of Desmond, Carbery and Muskerry. Even an ephemeral 'duc de Montcashel' in the Jacobite peerage? dukesandprinces.org/2025/06/02/the…

WHY IS THE DUKE OF WESTMINSTER CLOSE TO THE ROYALS? Welcome to the world, baby Cosima Grosvenor! The Prince/Princess of Wales will likely be Cosima's godfather/godmother, following a pattern dating back to Queen Victoria. You may have to download the image to zoom in. /1

It's sad even to the detail of Eric not getting anyone to proofread the text for grammar. (The team and *me* is a direct object)

SCS is happy to announce it has awarded the 2025 Early Career essay prize to Dr Elizabeth Hines. Her essay, “How to Pawn the Crown Jewels” demonstrates how Charles I was able to use his networks with agents in the Dutch Republic to raise badly needed funds by pawning items
