Old Q
Excerpt from Old Q: A Memoir of William Douglas, Fourth Duke of Queensberry K. T: One of 'the Fathers of the Turf, ' With a Full Account of His Celebrated Matches and Wagers, Etc From 'The Last Earls of Barrymore' to William, fourth and last Duke of Queensberry, better known as 'Old Q, ' is a bold step. Readers of my last two works will allow and admit that the latter must be absolved from the riotous conduct of the Barrymores. Here comparison ceases. The career of the Duke of Queensberry is one that has rarely, if ever, found its parallel in history or fiction. To exist for close on ninety years in the enjoyment of rank and wealth, without accomplishing anything worthy of a country's praise...
The Manuscripts of His Grace the Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry ...
The manuscripts consist of charters and other documents of the Douglas family; papers of the first Duke of Queensberry as commissioner to the Parliament of Scotland, 1685; letters to him from James II, John Graham of Claverhouse, the third Duke of Hamilton, the fifth Earl of Moray, and the first Earl of Melfort.
The Douglas Register
The Reverend William Douglas served both St. James Northam Parish (Dover Church) in Goochland County and in Manakin Town which was part of King William Parish. King William Parish was in Goochland County during this time period but is now in Powhatan County because of county boundary changes.
