Cave-Browne-Cave baronets

[1] Granted lands in South and North Cave in Yorkshire by William the Conqueror, by the fifteenth century the Caves had moved to Stanford on the boundary of Northamptonshire and Leicestershire to become "a wealthy and powerful clan, foremost among the new men of the age, the nouveaux riches, the shrewd, rapacious, grasping gentry raised up by the Tudor dynasty".

Their elder son, the fourth Baronet, died unmarried in 1734 and the baronetcy devolved on his younger brother, who also sat as Member of Parliament for Leicestershire.

His son, the seventh Baronet, sat briefly as Member of Parliament for Leicestershire but died childless at an early age.

William Astley Cave-Browne-Cave, the second son of the ninth Baronet, published and edited Hampshire, The County Magazine [1] for over four decades until 2007.

A former Fleet Street journalist with the News Chronicle and the Daily Mirror, he was also a theatrical agent who managed the singer Frankie Vaughan for some years[6][2].

Paul's brother Anthony Cave-Browne-Cave (1925–2011) was awarded the DSO for distinguishing himself in battle against the Japanese in Burma during World War II when still only in his teens.

[7] Phebe Hyacinth Cave-Browne-Cave (1901–80), MBE, the only child of the fourteenth Baronet, was a Church Mission Society missionary in northern Uganda for over half a century until her death.
