_Brothers with the same Christian Name_ (Vol. viii., pp. 338. 478.).--If
your various correspondents, who adduce instances of two brothers in
families having the same Christian names (both brothers being alive), will
consult Lodge's _Peerage_ for 1853, they will find the names of the sons of
the Marquis of Ormonde thus stated:
"James Edward Wm. Theobald, Earl of Ossory, born Oct. 5, 1844.
"Lord James Hubert Henry Thomas, born Aug. 20, 1847.
"Lord James Arthur Wellington Foley, born Sept. 23, 1849.
"Lord James Theobald Bagot John, born Aug. 6, 1852."
The Christian name of the late Marquis was James; and whichever of his
grandsons shall succeed the present possessor of the title, will bear the
same Christian name as the late peer.
