The Pedants' Society

Fellow No. 00194

Sir Edmund Carshalton (the middle)

Admitted June 1906 · F.

Vice-President of the Society throughout the 1940s. Refused, on principle, the use of regnal numerals in the family style, holding the practice an over-elevation unsuitable for baronets; the consequent Carshalton Question produced points of order at no fewer than forty-one consecutive meetings between 1957 and 1963.
