Two Possible Heirs To Vacant Viscountcy
LONDON, Mar. 4. The London office of Debretts said that the information showed two possible heirs to the vacant viscountcy of Avonmore are an 82-year-old New Zealand gardener, Mr. Foster Doring Yelverton and a 70-year-old Australian farmer, Mr. Henry George Yelverton. A Debrett official said the New Zealander says he is not interested but his son Mr. Barrymore Augustus Yelverton apparently is interested. “Although descent to the New Zealander is proved by birth and marriage certificates we have examined, the Australian farmer may still have a prior claim. The investigation is being continued.”
