Notes

After 1792, he called himself "Citizen" Stanhope and removed the coronets from the gates at Chevening House. He spent 10 years in Geneva from 1764-74 where he studied maths and science under Georges-Louis Le Sage. Elected to the Council of the Two Hundred in 1772 where his political instincts were first aroused through his sympathy for the excluded group known as the Natifs. At the same time, his skills with the crossbow saw him made "king" of the archers in Geneva.
