Query from a Russian

[edit]

I would like to know if the first owner of this mansion was related to Count William Fermor who led the Russian armies against Frederick the Great in the bloody Battle of Zorndorf. Russian references say that his parents "hailed from England", nothing more definite. --Ghirla -трёп- 19:25, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Response to: Ghirlandajo I came across this information (quoted below)on a web page called "Fermor One-Name Study." The William Fermor's of Easton Neston profiled in wikipedia don't refer to this event. How or if the William Fermor who went to Russia was related to these Fermor's is unclear.

"On 18 June 1758, Empress Elisabeth of Russia, bestowed upon Governor-General William Fermor, the merit of Count of the Roman Empire. I understand that a book on the Russian families of Fermor and Stenbok-Fermor is currently being written in 2010."

...you posted the question just eight years ago! --David J Gill (talk) 11:45, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

– Its not clear what the house is called, the Ordnance Survey does call it Easton Neston Ho while Historic England calls it just Easton Neston however that appears to also be referring to the gardens as well. As Easton Neston (parish) deals with the former village, WP:CONCEPTDAB could be used here. Crouch, Swale (talk) 14:27, 18 July 2018 (UTC)--Relisting. Dekimasuよ! 17:10, 25 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
