Abstract
RANDALL THOMAS MOWBRAY BERKELEY, eighth Earl, was born on January 31, 1865, and died on January 15. He was head of the historic house which acquired the Berkeley lands in the twelfth century, and is among the very few that can rightly claim a pre-Conquest pedigree ; even the critical genealogist Horace Round allows the Berkeley descent from Eadnoth the Staller, an officer of the household of Edward the Confessor.
