Note	Edward, privately educated, was commissioned into the 78th Highlanders, and then the Ross-shire Buffs and later the 2ndSeaforth Highlanders. While the regiment was stationed in Gibraltar and he was not yet 21 he married on 28 July 1866 Olga Maria, Baroness von Wessenberg-Ampringen, grand-daughter of the former Austrian ambassador to the Court of St James. She has a son Peter (Pello) at the time, aged about six, and said she was a widow. Recent research however shows her to have been the mistress of the French Prime Minister Monsieur Verbier, and she must have been something of an adventuress. Soon after the marriage the Regiment was ordered to India, and as she refused to go there Edward sent in his papers. One can imagine that a young officer marrying like that would not have been allowed to remain in the regiment anyway. They then lived in the South of France, mostly at Pau.. Living Coddington Cheshire 1917.
