    With the old Engine Yard being transformed into a retail park, the Belvoir Castle dooms being renovated after 200 years of being untouched for opening to the public in Spring 2018, all garden paths at Belvoir Castle being upgraded (including some new ones), and much more--there's never a dull moment in the life of Emma Manners, Her Grace, The Duchess of Rutland.

    Met her today and spoke to her for a brief moment as she was working in the cafe. She works around the site and is in the middle of all the action when it becomes busy with people coming to visit. Her and her family are always wanting to improve the site, it’s a breath taking site with wonderful views. I am blessed live near by, my mother has often seen her shopping at Asda in the town near by

    I came on here because I read part (as I'm not a subscriber) of an article (Daily Telegraph) regarding her having 300 tenants and that she interviews them all herself. And I have to admit, the way I read that article (or just the beginning of it for reasons give above) gave me an immediate first impression (shame on me). I then watched this short video, and talk about doing a complete 180 degree turn - I absolutely love her ! Well done her, and good for her and I wish her all the best. She comes across as an absolutely lovely person. And I can *assure* you, I've never said any of that before about a 'landlord' ever !

    American here. :). I JUST discovered Emma Manners today on Good Morning Britain (which I watch every day). Listening to the banter between Emma and Piers, I instantly loved her. And she made some very good points! Interesting projects and completely agree with her views on sustainable farming for the immediate community. (not factory farming or chain restaurants shipping in mystery meat from lord knows where) Personally I would like to see more from Emma and less media bullying of Meghan.

      A houseful of servants is very expensive these days. It is also fairly intrusive if you like some privacy. I remember back in the 1960s when our house took 14 staff to run it, and the highest paid, our butler, earned £15 a week. Now a good butler can demand £500 a week. Add the cost of housing, feeding, access to a car and all the other costs, and you are easily looking at £50000 a year, for one person.

    So I’ve wondered for years if I’m related to this royal family and it turns out I am, I hope to meet and see everyone and everything at some point in my life, I believe this to be very unique and coincidental so from my half ass research it goes as following:
    - Thomas Manners 1st Earl of Rutland, England
    - Henry Manners (Thomas son) 2nd Earl
    - John Manners 4th Earl (1 of 2 Earl children of Henry)
    - George Manners 7th Earl (1 of 3 Earl children of John)
    - John Manners (second cousin of George) 8th Earl of rutland
    - then something happens and John 8th Earl has ANTONIE MANNERS in 1641 in Alkborough, lincolnshire, England (if correct)
    - then John Manners (antonies only son?) born in 1679 in Yorkshire, England but dies in America in 1770
    Now to America:
    - John Manners Sr. and Rebecca stout have a son named John in America 1728
    - John Jr. then married Anne stout (family member of Rebecca?) I believe John Jr. had an affair and had Abraham Manners aka “Christopher Manners” in 1769-1770
    - (John later named another child Abraham who only lived to 14 years young)
    -
    - Then at 17-18 years old “Christopher” had Michael Manners 1787
    -
    - Michael then has William Allen Manners 1822
    -
    - William A. manners then has James Monroe Manners 1850
    -
    - James M. manners has William Emmit Manners 1889
    -
    - Then William E. Manners has Shelby Leon Manners 1927
    -
    - Shelby L Manners then has a daughter named Debra Manners 1956 who had a son named Joseph Manners 1974
    -
    - My dad had me, Cody Manners 1997
    -
    - And now my son Braxton Manners
