He was married to Ann Drysdale whose brother was Robert Drysdale, Town Clerk of Kirkcaldy. Dr Drysdale and his wife Ann had a daughter also named Ann. It appears that Dr. Drysdale returned to Scotland with his wife and children before his death on 1 April 1790 in Kirkaldy, Scotland, leaving his illegitimate family behind in Jamaica. During his time in Jamaica Dr Drysdale was a Surgeon in Kingston and held the position of workhouse and hospital surgeon from about 1782 to 1787. | Drysdale, Dr John (I192309)

| 164 | Edward Pryse Lloyd sssumed surname Lloyd-Harries in 1870 on gaining an inheritance This gentleman, of Llandingat House, was not born in *Halkyn, Flintshire but rather at his family's ancestral home of Plas Glansevin, Llangadog, Llandovery, Wales (sources Parish Register- Llangadog and his Cadet Papers). He retired from India as Major but, as indicated by Carmarthenshire Homes listing the occupant of Llandingat House as Col. Edward Pryse Lloyd in 1885, would appear to have gone on in England to attain the rank of Col. Edward Pryse Lloyd was born at [*Halkyn, Flintshire], on 30 October 1822. He was appointed Ensign in the 24th Bengal Native Infantry on 29 December 1844, and promoted to Lieutenant on 12 September 1846. He served throughout the Sutlej campaign of 1845-46, including the battles of Moodkee, Ferozeshuhur, Buddiwal, and Aliwal, also in the operations against the Forts of Dhurm Kot and Phillour (Medal and two Clasps). Served under Sir Hugh Wheeler against the insurgents in Cashmere in 1847; appointed in 1848, at the commencement of the outbreak that resulted in the Second Sikh Campaign, Adjutant of the 1st Sikh Infantry, and proceeded with a party of Sikhs from Hooshearpore, and surprised, seized, blew up, and demolished the strong Fort of Choky, in the Himalayas, in 1849; served against the insurgents under Ram Singh, and was present at the attack on the enemy's position at Akrot and Aurkabagh (not entitled to the Punjab medal for these operations). In 1857 he was appointed by Lord Canning second in command, during the Mutinies of the Kamroop Regiment. In 1860 he was appointed Assistant Commissioner of Assam, and was afterwards Principal Assistant to the Governor-General's Agent, N.E. Frontier, and then Deputy Commissioner, 1860; thanked twice by the Government of Bengal for services to the Bhootan Expedition under Sir Henry Tombs, V.C. He married in 1849, at Simla, India, Louisa Susan, youngest daughter of the late Isaac Pereira, of the Bengal Artillery, and had issue, 3 sons and one daughter. He succeeded to Llandingat House, Carmarthenshire, and part of the Maesllydan estate, 12 September 1870, when he assumed, by injunction of the will of the late Mrs Lloyd Harries, the surname Harries in addition to his own of Lloyd. Promoted to Lieutenant-Colonel on 29 December 1870, he retired shortly afterwards. Lieutenant-Colonel Edward Pryse Lloyd Harries died at Llandridnod Wells on 26 September 1890. The above service details were compiled from various sources, including Bengal Army Lists, Hart's Army List, and Annals and Antiquities of the Counties and County Families of Wales, from which it would appear that he is only entitled to the medal for the Sutlej campaign with two clasps. | Lloyd-Harries, Col.

| 179 | Francis Douglas was the eldest son of the 9th Marquess of Queensberry. Until 1893, Douglas was known by the courtesy title of Viscount Drumlanrig. As a young man, he was a lieutenant in the Coldstream Guards. In 1892, William Gladstone became Prime Minister for the fourth and last time. The Foreign Secretary in his administration was Archibald Primrose, 5th Earl of Rosebery. Rumours abound as to Rosebery's sexuality; although married with four children, it was often rumoured that he was bisexual. Whatever the truth of these rumours, there is no doubt that he made Francis Douglas his protégé. He was introduced to Rosebery around 1892 and, in spite of any obvious qualifications, Rosebery appointed him to be his private secretary. Seeking to advance his young friend, Rosebery obtained for him the position of a Lord-in-Waiting to Queen Victoria. To qualify for this role, Francis needed to be a peer in his own right and he was accordingly created Baron Kelhead in June 1893. Francis' father, the hot-headed Marquess of Queensberry and later bane of Oscar Wilde, was furious when his son was given entry into the House of Lords. Because Queensberry held no English titles, he had to rely upon being elected as a representative peer of Scotland in order to sit in the Lords. Although he had been a representative peer between 1872 and 1880, his fellow peers declined to re-elect him in 1880, due to his publicly professed atheism. Between 1880 and 1893, Queensberry found himself embroiled in a number of scandals, further details of which can be found at the foot of the page containing details of his peerage. When he heard of Rosebery's plan to elevate his son to the House of Lords, his reaction was typically violent. He wrote angry letters to Gladstone and Rosebery. He even wrote to the Queen, complaining of Rosebery's 'bad influence' on his son, which was probably an oblique accusation of homosexuality. Soon after Francis' promotion, the Marquess pursued Rosebery to Bad Homburg in Germany where Rosebery was holidaying with the Prince of Wales. Queensberry, armed with a dog whip, was found lurking near Rosebery's hotel and the next day the local police chief was able to report to Rosebery that Queensberry had 'found it advisable to depart this morning with the 7 o'clock train for Paris.' However, news of the attempted assault started tongues wagging about the nature of the relationship between Rosebery and Lord Kelhead. During the summer of 1894, Francis became engaged to a young woman named Alix Ellis. In October of that year, he accepted an invitation for a weekend's shooting at Quantock Lodge,near Bridgwater, the home of Alix's uncle, Edward Stanley (MP for Somerset West 1882-1885and Bridgwater 1885-1906). On 19 October, while out with his fellow shooters, he went intothe next field. After a few minutes, his companions heard a shot and, hurrying into the field,found Francis dead from a gunshot wound. At the subsequent inquest, the coroner recorded a verdict of accidental death, although public opinion was widely in favour of suicide. Having lost one son in circumstances surrounded by rumours of homosexuality, it is possible that Queensberry was determined not to lose another, which may explain his implacablepersecution of Oscar Wilde six months later. | Douglas, Viscount Francis Archibald (Baron Kelhead) (I9200)
