The Right Honourable Henry Stafford, Lord Northcote GCMG, GCIE, CB, PC, late Governor General of the Commonwealth of Australia, was President of the London Devonian Association for 1911. He died at Ashford in Kent in September that year. He and his family history are eulogised in the Association's Year Book by its Editor. An introduction to the President for members was part of a tradition evident in later editions of the Year Book. Chope claims that the Northcote family tree is one of the oldest in Devonshire, extending to within half a century of the Norman Conquest.
