Not my ticket to the Coronation \u2013 that clearly got stuck in the post \u2013 but a beautiful papercut designed as a Valentine card by the remarkable Georgian polymath Elizabeth Cobbold (1767-1824), matriarch of the third of nine generations of Ipswich family brewers.\u00a0 The detail in the paperwork is extraordinary.\u00a0 It must have taken many hours to create.\u00a0 It is one of hundreds that now live at Knebworth House as part of the Cobbold Family History Trust, a charity that has assembled a unique collection of Cobbold family history and heirlooms as a resource for historians and genealogists.\u00a0 The collection moved to Knebworth House last year and, as it is catalogued, is revealing a treasure trove of stories of the other side of my father\u2019s family.<\/p>\n

The Lytton family have been in Knebworth since the 1400s. \u00a0The Cobbold family only moved to Knebworth in the 1940s.\u00a0 Growing up in Knebworth House, I have been surrounded by Lytton family history, but know very little about my Cobbold ancestors.\u00a0 Because of the Cobbold Family History Trust, that balance is now being redressed.\u00a0 To reflect this I am giving a talk in Knebworth House on the Cobbold family on Thursday 6th<\/sup> July to benefit the Knebworth Twinning Association, of which my father was long term president.\u00a0 It is a good moment to reflect on the history of the Cobbold family, as this year marks the 300th<\/sup> anniversary of the Cobbold Brewery in Ipswich.\u00a0 Sadly Tolly Cobbold beer is no more, so I won\u2019t be serving you Cobbold ales, but I do have tankard full of fascinating and fun Cobbold tales.\u00a0 Tickets \u2013 which I trust the KTA will be papercutting as elaborate as this one \u2013 are limited, so dispel any disappointment if you\u2019ve not received a Coronation invite, and pick up the second best ticket of the summer.<\/p>\n
