Other Branches, Including Earls Temple of Stowe and Lords Harlech

Several other members of the Gore family have also gained prominence and higher ranks. Sir John Gore, brother of the first Baronet of the 1622 creation, was Lord Mayor of London in 1624 and is the ancestor of the branch of the family which later inherited through marriage the earldom of Temple of Stowe. His descendants are now Earls Temple of Stowe.

John Gore, 1st Baron Annaly (1718–1784), and Henry Gore, 1st Baron Annaly (1728–1793), were the sons of George Gore, second son of the first Baronet of the 1662 creation. These titles, created as Baron Annaly of Tenelick, in the county of Longford, were created 1766 and 1789 for two brothers who died childless; both titles are now extinct.

John Ormsby-Gore, 1st Baron Harlech, was a descendant of William Gore, third and youngest son of the first Baronet of the 1662 creation. His descendants are now Lords Harlech.

Famous quotes containing the words including, earls, temple, stowe and/or lords:

    In a democracy everybody has a right to be represented, including the jerks.
    Chris Patten (b. 1944)

    It is not stressful circumstances, as such, that do harm to children. Rather, it is the quality of their interpersonal relationships and their transactions with the wider social and material environment that lead to behavioral, emotional, and physical health problems. If stress matters, it is in terms of how it influences the relationships that are important to the child.
    —Felton Earls (20th century)

    I have often felt as though I had inherited all the defiance and all the passions with which our ancestors defended their Temple and could gladly sacrifice my life for one great moment in history. And at the same time I always felt so helpless and incapable of expressing these ardent passions even by a word or a poem.
    Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    The obstinancy of cleverness and reason is nothing to the obstinancy of folly and inanity.
    —Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)

    The lords of life, the lords of life,—
    I saw them pass
    In their own guise,
    Like and unlike,
    Portly and grim,—
    Use and surprise,
    Surface and dream,
    Succession swift, and spectral wrong,
    Temperament without a tongue,
    And the inventor of the game
    Omnipresent without name;—
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
