Lt.-Col. Alastair Edward Hyde Villiers was the son of Lt.-Col. Charles Hyde Villiers and Lady Victoria Alexandrina Innes-Ker. He married Gaudencia Isabel Fraser-Luckie, daughter of E. G. Fraser-Luckie and Guadencia Iglesias.
   His parents lived at Folly Court, Wokingham, Berkshire. Both are buried in the churchyard of St. Paul's on Reading Road. Lady Alexandrina was a god-daughter of Queen Victoria and direct cousin of Winston Churchill.

  How's that for starters? Can you tell me anything else about him or any other members of his family?

Thanks very much for that.

You seem to know a lot more about him than I do, but I still don't know why my aunt would have been interested in this family.

Thanks again.

Hi,

I just came across this old thread.  I can't answer the question how Mary McKernan happened to come into the possession of the birth and marriage records but I'd be very interested to hear from anyone else researching this Villiers family.

Regards,
Chris
