==== Notes ====
Albert Shumma Aledon, the 12th duke, married Tara Ling from the Dagudashaag branch of the Lings. Her parents disapproved strongly of the match and made some extremely wounding remarks about backwoods peers and her intelligence. Tara furiously renounced her family and never spoke to them again. Their son Willem Caranda and daughter Rachel Estelle (named respectively after the famous first duke and his grandmother, the first baroness) consequently used their second personal names instead of their mother's family name.
