DEVONSHIRE, 6th Duke of, William Spencer Cavendish PC KG 1790-1858
orig - res Nov 1844 (but still in list Jan 1846)
Interpretation rule:
text in parentheses such as (Jan 1846) is interpreted
as Last evidenced: the last date for which the
source provides evidence of membership. It does not mean that
the member resigned on that date. Wording such as
(by Jun 1844) means the member was known to be a member
by that date, but the membership start date is not stated.
The original source wording above is never altered.
