Could someone add a pronunciation guide? Is it Luh SELL ess, LASS el ihs, Luh SELL eez, Luh SELLS or does it rhyme with tassels? Is it something else entirely? Help! -Rrius (talk) 02:54, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is Luh Sells there is a Jamaican company Lascelles de Mercado which I have heard pronounced that way.RichardBond (talk) 17:12, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
According to Earl of Harewood: The name of [Harewood House], like the title of the barony and earldom, is pronounced "Harwood". The family name is pronounced to rhyme with "tassels". —Tamfang (talk) 20:36, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Her elder son, the Earl of Harewood, wrote about his parents' marriage in his memoirs The Tongs and the Bones and says that "they got on well together and had a lot of friends and interests in common."
On its own, that sounds like rather a strange, disembodied statement - as though it was refuting a counter-argument that had since been deleted.
That is actually what happened. My discreet entry about their less-usual courtship was deleted by Celia Homeford on the grounds of no-citation. There are those who may want to add less-discreet theories about Mary the royal rebel.
Title query - Baron Harewood surely (as child)?[edit]
Would he really have spent the first ten years of his life as 'The Honourable Henry etc Lascelles"? The third generation courtesy title of the Earls of Harewood is Baron Harewood, which I understood would be borne by the eldest son of the eldest son during an Earl's lifetime. Would it not have been correct to address him as Baron Harewood as during that time his father was then Viscount Lascelles until the death of his grandfather in 1892.Cloptonson (talk) 08:17, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Children of courtesy peers are titled as if their father held an actual peerage. The eldest son of a viscount is "The Honourable". Opera hat (talk) 08:54, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That's not quite accurate: where a tier is missing, as in the case of the Duke of Manchester / Viscount Mandeville / Lord Kimbolton and the Marquess of Londonderry / Viscount Castlereagh / Lord Stewart, the grandson is styled as if the son had an earldom even though there is none. (Hm, only the two examples.) —Tamfang (talk) 20:42, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
