  John Augustus Hervey, 7th Marquess of Bristol@Everything2.com
Born on the 15th September 1954, he was the son of Victor Frederick Hervey, 6th Marquess of Bristol and his wife first Pauline Mary Bolton.
Educated at Harrow School and Neuchâtel University in Switzerland, he is said to have suffered something of an emotionally-deprived childhood; his parents were divorced in 1959 whilst his father once described as a "handsome sociopath" remarried and went into tax exile in Monaco.
In this manner the Marquess amused himself, procuring rent-boys and indulging himself with narcotics.
