People Educated At Eton College
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

The feudal barony of Dunster was an English feudal barony with its ''caput'' at Dunster Castle in Somerset. During the reign of King Henry I (1100–1135) the barony (or "honour") comprised forty knight's fees and was later enlarged. In about 1150 the manors retained in demesne were Dunster, Minehead, Cutcombe, Kilton and Carhampton in Somerset, and Ham in Dorset. Descent de Mohun The historian the Duchess of Cleveland wrote as follows in her 1889 work ''Battle Abbey Roll'' concerning the origins of the de Mohun (''alias'' Mohon, Moion, etc.) family: :''"From Moion, near St. Lo, Normandy, where the site of their castle is still to be seen.

Commissioners Of Audit
The Commissioners of Audit had responsibility from 1785 to 1866 for the auditing of public accounts in the United Kingdom. History In 1785 a ''Commission for Auditing the Public Accounts'' was established by statute, replacing the Auditors of the Imprest. Its members, the Commissioners of Audit, were five in number: three were appointed by letters patent, the other two were the Comptrollers of Army Accounts, who served ''ex officio''. (Comptrollers of Army Accounts had first been appointed in 1703, to audit the accounts of all Army regiments and paymasters; their office was later abolished, in 1835, whereupon their duties were taken over by the Commissioners of Audit.) In 1806 the Commission was reconstituted with ten commissioners (no longer incorporating the ''ex officio'' members). Over ensuing decades the size of the Commission gradually decreased as departing members were not always replaced. Under the terms of the Exchequer and Audit Departments Act 1866, the offices of the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
