William Cavendish (1673-1729), Second Duke of Devonshire. Married Hon. Rachel Russell (1674-1725), daughter of William Lord Russell. The Cavendish family have lived at Chatsworth since the mid-sixteenth century. This image is one of a collection by the famous local antiquarian, Thomas Bateman, of Middleton by Youlgreave. (1821-1861). Bateman organized his collection by inserting them into a 4 volume copy of Lysons Magna Britannia, Derbyshire, creating a fascinating and unique illustrated record of the county. The purchase of the collection for Derbyshire Libraries was made possible by the generous bequest of Miss Frances Webb of Whaley Bridge, well known local historian, who died in December 2006.
