In the Gunpowder Plot section of this article, it is said that James I's heir to the throne was Elizabeth of Bohemia. But James at this point had two sons, Henry and Charles. InvisibleSun 17:24, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
Indeed, this would seem to be entirely incorrect. I've changed it to say that Henry was James's heir. And Henry was indeed more dogmatically protestant than his father, although I'm not sure this was evident in 1605, when Henry was 11 years old. john k 18:15, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

Lord Salisbury's descendants still maintain a high level of influence. Cornelia Vanderbilt (1900–1976) was married in Biltmore Village in 1924 to the Honourable John Francis Amherst Cecil (1890–1954) a descendant of Lord Salisbury.
Cornelia and John Cecil continued to live at the Biltmore Estate, giving birth to two sons, George Henry Vanderbilt Cecil (1925) and William Amherst Vanderbilt Cecil (1928). At the present time, Henry and William own the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina. Today however, the estate is used as a business. The luxurious estate houses such artefacts as Napoleon Bonaparte's chess set, and a tapestry set belonging to Cardinal Richelieu.
