'Earl of Eldon' rose Description

My HMF:

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Notes:

John Scott (June 4, 1751 Newcastle upon Tyne - January 13, 1838 London), 1st Earl of Eldon (from 1821), High Chancellor of Great Britain (1801-06, 1807-27)
his grandson, John Scott (December 10, 1805 - September 18, 1854), 2nd Earl of Eldon, Tory politician
his son, John Scott (November 8,1845 - August 10,1926), 3rd Earl of Eldon (from September 18, 1854)
Henry Coppin was living as a gardener in the same village as the Earl of Eldon had his mansion "Shirley House". It is probable that he dedicated the rose to 3rd Earl.
