About Elizabeth Still Stanhope

According to James Pearsall Clabburn Family History (http://www.myheritage.com/person-4001227_141356831_141356831/elizab...) "Elizabeth, had eloped, aged only 16, with Charles Stanhope, a nephew of the Earl of Harrington (though it was not until 1866 that he rather unexpectedly succeeded to the title himself), and they had been married at the British Embassy in Paris on 15th January 1839. . This does not seem to have caused a permanent rift in the family either, as the elder Robert considered giving Wartensee to his son-in-law, presumably because he was worried that his own son's financial irresponsibility might lead to its loss. However, the plan was never put into effect. "
