Costume at the Duchess of Devonshire's 2 July 1897 Fancy-dress Ball

Notes and Questions

edit
  1. Because Josefa de la Oliva Durán y Ortega had married Juan Antonio Gabriel de la Oliva in January 1851, the English High Court Probate Division[7] ruled after Lionel Sackville-West's death in 1910 that she and Sackville-West were not legally married and their children were all illegitimate.[2] They had lived as if they were married, and in announcing her death to his friends he called her his wife.[5]
  2. Maximiliano Leon Jose Manuele Enrique Bernardino Sackville-West: according to The Peerage, citing Burke's, [10] "Documentation was drawn up stating him to be son of ‘Pepita' by Juan Antonio de la Oliva, her official husband, hence he was prevented from claiming the Barony of Sackville of Knole on his biological father's death."[11]
  3. Identifying the Mrs. Sackville-West who attended the Duchess of Devonshire's ball: a reference to Mr. and the Hon. Mrs. Sackville-West in 1890 is to Victoria Josefa Sackville-West shortly after her marriage to Lionel Edward Sackville-West.[12] Her father is mentioned in all the newspaper reports of the wedding, and her mother — who died in 1871 or 1872 — is mentioned in none.
