  {geni:occupation} Duke of St. Albans, Earl of Burford {geni:about_me} http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Beauclerk,_1st_Duke_of_St_Albans There are several legends as to how Beauclerk was made Earl of Burford. The first is that on arrival of the King, his mother said, "Come here, you little bastard, and greet your father." When the king rebuked her for calling him that, she replied, "Your Majesty has given me no other name to call him by." In response, Charles created him Earl of Burford. Another legend is that Beauclerk's mother held him out of a window (or above a river) and threatened to drop him unless he was given a peerage. Charles supposedly cried out "God save the Earl of Burford!" and subsequently createdthat peerage. -------------------- Charles Beauclerk, 1st Duke of St. Albans M, #105034, b. 8 May 1670, d. 11 May 1726 Charles Beauclerk, 1st Duke of St. Albans was born on 8 May 1670 at London, England.
