Who is "General Edward Montagu" (listed in the 1660 commission, shortly after the Restoration)? By 1660, Edward Montagu, 2nd Earl of Manchester was a peer (and he would probably have been called by his peerage). The other Edward Montagu—Edward Montagu, 1st Earl of Sandwich—makes more sense, but Lord Sandwich was an admiral, not a general. [1] notes the commissioner's name as "Montagu, Sir E.," so I seem to lean toward the latter. ugen64 06:45, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I'd imagine it's Sandwich - I'd think military ranks in the 17th century were somewhat fluid. But I'm not sure. john k 08:50, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Would anyone seriously object if I divided this further into sections based on ministry? It's awfully hard to edit at the moment. Mackensen (talk) 02:22, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't this be "Lords High Treasurer"? Hairy Dude (talk) 20:30, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
