The Sackville claimant case

A Twentieth-Century Claimant - characters in the Sackville case. Ernest Henri Jean Baptiste Sackville-West claimed to be the lawful son of the late Lord Sackville and Josefa Duran de Ortega, otherwise known as Pepita, a celebrated Spanish dancer, and alleged they were legally married some time between 1863 and 1867. In opposition, it was denied that Lord Sackville married Pepita, and that she had in fact already married her dancing master in 1851. On the late Lord Sackville's death, the title and estates passed to his nephew, Lionel Edward Sackville-West. The family seat is Knole House, Sevenoaks. Date: 1910
