Prince Louis Lucien Bonaparte (1813-1891) was born on 4 January 1813 in Thorngrove, Worcestershire, the son of Lucien Bonaparte and Alexandrine Jacob of Bleschamp, and the nephew of the Emperor Napoleon I. He grew up in England, and did not go to France until the 1840s. He was made senator and prince following the accession to power of his cousin Napoleon III. Louis returned to England in 1870 after the announcement of the Third Republic. He was an avid student, and became a chemist and a renowned linguist, publishing notable works on the Basque language. He died on 3 November 1891 in Fano, Italy.

Alexander John Ellis (1814-1890), philologist and mathematician, was born on 14 June 1814 at Hoxton Middlesex, and educated at Shrewsbury School, Eton, and Trinity College, Cambridge.

He died on 28 October 1890.
