| | Stamford, Vermont, New England, USA |
 | | At the time Wentworth first used the Stamford name for the town, another Grey, Harry (1715-68), was thirty-eight years old, and had succeedeed his father as the fourth Earl of Stamford a few years earlier. |
 | | However, though George certainly was the most distinguished of the Earls of Stamford (and he did marry Henrietta Cavendish-Bentinck, who was related to Wentworth), he did not succeed to the Earldom until 1768. |
 | | The town's name was apparently changed to New Stamford because Wentworth wanted to have it understood that this was an entirely new grant. |
