The Sylph by Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire The Duchess of Devonshire is remembered most often for her scandalous marriage and for her proto-feminist involvement in politics. Born Lady Georgiana Spencer, she was also widely known for her support of female artists and writers, including the actress turned author, Mary Darby Robinson. Her first novel, The Sylph, which was published anonymously in 1779, explores the life and marriage of an aristocratic woman as she navigates the fashionable world, and carries within it resonances of Georgiana’s own experiences and disappointments. --------------------- Georgiana Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire (7 June 1757 – 30 March 1806), formerly Lady Georgiana Spencer, was the first wife of the 5th Duke of Devonshire and mother of the 6th Duke of Devonshire. Her father, the 1st Earl Spencer, was a great-grandson of the 1st Duke of Marlborough. Her niece was Lady Caroline Lamb. Among the descendants of her family are the present Duke of Devonshire (via her granddaughter); Diana, Princess of Wales, and Sarah, Duchess of York (via her illegitimate daughter Eliza Courtney). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgiana_Cavendish,_Duchess_of_Devonshire ------------------------- Georgiana Duchess of Devonshire, Jonathan Gross and Jonathan Gross www.bibliovault.org/BV.book.epl?BookId=17650

"Jack" the (Womb etc) RipperPossibly to protect itself against hostile reaction from admirers of the royal family, Thames TV did not suggest that Sir William Gull had been "recruited" by Queen Victoria, or Prince Eddy, to kill the prostitutes. The filmmakers explained that problem away by saying the royal physician was just "insane." But the late Stephen Knight, in his book Jack the Ripper: The Final Solution, took the subject further. He said Prince Eddy had fallen in love with a Catholic shop-girl named Anne Crook, had secretly married her in a Catholic ceremony, and that she had given birth to his child, a girl named Alice. To prevent a religious scandal erupting, which could easily have toppled the then unpopular Queen Victoria, Sir William Gull was commissioned to kidnap Anne. He did, and rendered her insane by operating on her brain-after which he had placed her in a mental institution. According to Mr. Knight, this disgraceful plot backfired because Anne Crook had left her baby in the care of Mary Kelly, an amateur prostitute living in London's East End who, in collusion with three full-time whores, tried to blackmail the royal family. The result, stated Mr. Knight, was that the British prime minister, Lord Salisbury, sent Sir William to "eliminate" all those dangerous guttersnipes in a desperate last-ditch attempt to protect the British monarchy. To give the impression that a total madman was responsible, Sir William Gull had cut out the prostitute's wombs and ovaries or committed other atrocities, such as chopping off their breasts or ears. Sir William is said to have died in 1890, but there is doubt about this because, contrary to usual medical ethics, his death was certified by Dr. Theo Ackland, who just happened to be his son-in-law. Stephen Knight's findings were so well researched and convincing that somebody thought him dangerous. Perhaps that is why he was smeared by several newspapers, which tried to claim he had got his facts wrong. He hadn't. His book, which was originally published by Harrap in 1976, has been reprinted twelve times since by Grafton Books of London. www.bilderberg.org/royal.htm

This goes to mythology and ... Britannia stuff. It starts like this -In the bloodiest of battles that ensued, the Irish were able to reincarnate their dead using the Magic Cauldron, so the fighting was harder than had ever been seen before. Eventually the battle was ended, but neither side was triumphant. Only seven Britons escaped alive. Bran was not amongst them. He had been mortally wounded in the foot by a poisoned dart, only surviving long enough to request that his head be cut off and buried on Gwynfryn (the 'White Mount' where the Tower of London now stands) in Caer-Lundein (London). Upon his death the harvests back in Britain failed and the land became barren and unworkable. www.britannia.com/celtic/gods/bran.htmlThen there are Bran's ravens -The legend of Bran's head is now nearly forgotten, yet a reminder of his guardianship remains in the form of the Tower ravens, for the raven is Bran's bird. For many centuries, ravens have guarded the Tower of London, and legend has it that if the ravens should ever leave, then the Tower would crumble and a great disaster would befall Britain. www.thornr.demon.co.uk/bran/tower.htmlThe sacred tree - The Alder was sacred to the god 'Bran' who carried a branch of it with him during the 'Battle of the Trees' saga, an old Celtic legend. Bran’s totem animal was the Raven, which also became associated with the Alder. Ritual pipes and whistles were often made from Alder wood, many in the shape of the Raven. www.controverscial.com/Alder.htmGiving away children, like modern boarding schools -"What bound disparate family groups together was the fosterage system, whereby children of one tribe were fostered as the children of another... Many Celtic stories turn around the point of torn loyalties between blood and foster kindreds." Encyclopedia of Celtic Wisdom, Caitlin and John Matthews, 1994. And the whole skull(s)/ memory of the ancestors/ fairy-mounds thingy.

Also (Wiki): There are records of Celtic mercenaries in Egypt serving the Ptolemies. Thousands were employed in 283-246 BC and they were also in service around 186 BC. They attempted to overthrow Ptolemy II.

This is kind of funny. So, I'm reading the Larouche article about Princess Diana and MI6 (re Lord Voldemort and 'the hairy plumbers'). and it goes on, yada yada. I think to myself why don't I see what's up on this site recently and click the little banner thingy to get to the main page, which redirects to: unitedstatescentralcommand.com/(It has a bit of Alex Jones, a bigfoot ape, stuxnet article, pray-for-egypt.) Anyway, this was the main page: The Zionist Backed Sipah-e-Sahaba The poster below is from a terrorist group known as Sipah-e-Sahaba whom are funded by the CIA-FBI on and off of US soil, since at minimum 1995 under special operations. These US backed terrorists also own and operate at minimum websites and blogs: jmmpak.co.cc, kr-hcy.com, aleesar.tk, ahlesunnatwljamat.tk, haqcharyaar.tk, aleesar.blogspot.com, alesar.com.pk, jmmpak.tk, haqchaaryaar.net These terrorists live their lives according to a man named Mr. Muhammad Ibn Abd-al-Wahhab, who died in 1792. Mr. Muhammad Ibn Abd-al-Wahhab claimed that he has the right to reinterpret Islam and the Quran, and many stupid people followed him, and the British Government backed terrorist leaders that followed Mr. Muhammad Ibn Abd-al-Wahhab's books and teachings, and to this day the British Government along with the US Government still do. To this day these people call themselves Muslims, and the British Government knew that this can divide Muslims, so the British Government created and funded other cult like movements that claim to be Muslims, such as Bahai's and Ahmadi's. militaryintelligence.mi6govuk.com/

Right now, every public school in Canada, maybe other schools, have a portrait of The Queen in the office or hallway or gymnasium where she, or is it She, gets hammered regularly by balls. If Ma'am permits, or however succession occurs, Prince whathisname to become king, then his, or is that His, portrait will be in the office or hallway or gymnasium of every public school in Canada.
That's essentially having portraits of Charlie Sheen in every Canadian school.

née:
George I (Georg Ludwig; 28 May 1660 – 11 June 1727)
At the age of 54, after the death of Queen Anne of Great Britain, George ascended the British throne as the first monarch of the House of Hanover.
Which wasn't very British sounding.
He did not speak English.
