Notes

•This file on Commons previously misidentified as by Thomas Lawrence.

•Possibly misidentified sitters as the ages and sexes of Granville's children do not fit here (the eldest child was female; eight years separate the youngest child by Lady Bessborough from the eldest child by Lady Harriet Cavendish; if the children by Lady Bessborough are omitted, then the eldest two children should be female), nor do the adults bear any great resemblence to Granville or Harriet. The children are listed with birthdates at Genealogics. Some websites identify this as the family of Granville's elder brother, the 2nd Duke of Sutherland, but he did not marry until 1823 and his elder son was born in 1828, after three daughters.
