As to the statues, most of them were sold in 1720 (for £6,335), but many, especially those in any way mutilated, had been removed as early as 1678, by Cuper (the Earl's gardener) to his public pleasure gardens at Bankside, Southwark.

Both these Earls, {i.e. Suffolk and Carlisle) though not descended from the heiress of the last Eail of Arundel of the family of Fitz-Alan, have a descent from Richard (Fitz-Alan), Earl of Arundel aud Surrey (who d. 1397) through his 1st da. Elizabeth, wife of Thomas (Mowbray), Duke of Norfolk, and grandmother of their ancestor Sir John Howard, or. Duke of Norfolk. Such descent, however, carries with it no rep>-csenlation cither of the Fitz-Alan or of the Mowbray family.
