    I have come across an old passport of a british politician, Lord Dynevor dated 1839 along with a bunch of letters (presumably written by the lord). Any idea where one could find information about this item and perhaps the value?

    Is it Arthur de Cardonnel FitzUryan Rice, 6th Baron Dynevor (24 January 1836 – 8 June 1911) or his father Francis William Rice 5th Baron Dynevor.

    Thanks for the replies! It is indeed the 4th Baron Dynevor, George Rice-Trevor. Skimming through the letters they appear to be a mixture from different people and different eras. Some are addressing a grandmother and others are addressed to 'Lady Dynevor' and one specifically, dated 1874, appears to discuss the Dynevor estates after the death of George-Rice.

    I'm finding these old letters quite fascinating! A bit of voyeurism into the lives of this family that lived 150+ years ago.
