The death is announced of the Right Hon. George William James Lysaght, sixth Baron Lisle in the peerage of Ireland. He was of advanced age and for a long time in feeble heath. In early life he held a commission in the South Devon Militia Artillery and saw active service as a volunteer in the Maori war in New Zealand. The Lysaght family is of ancient descent, an ancestor having fought in Flanders for the Protestant cause in Elizabeth's reign, and another in the same cause at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690, when extensive lands in Cork and Limerick were conferred for distinguished service. By his marriage with Amy Emily, a daughter of the late Ayliffe Langford, Lord Lisle had two children-a son, the Hon. Horace George Lysaght, who died five months ago, and a daughter, the Hon. Kathleen Eliy. A grandson, John Nicholas Lysaght, a minor, succeeds as seventh baron. Two nephews of Lord Lisle served in the present war-Major Marwood, York and Lancaster Regiment, wounded in France, and Captain Charles Marwood, Royal Warwickshire Regiment, killed in Cameroon.
Noted events in his life were:
1. He appeared on the census in 1841 in Pitville Parade, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.
George married Amy Emily Langford, daughter of Ayliffe Langford and Charlotte Amy Pavey, on 31 October 1868. (Amy Emily Langford was born in 1832 in Wandsworth, London and died in 1918.)
