You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 18.212.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 08:38, 2 March 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''[[Major (British Army)|Major]] [[The Right Honourable|The Rt. Hon.]] William Charles Yelverton, 4th Viscount Avonmore''' (27 September 1824 – 1 April 1883 in [[Biarritz]]), was an [[Irish people|Irish]] nobleman and soldier. He was the son of [[Barry John Yelverton, 3rd Viscount Avonmore|The 3rd Viscount Avonmore]] and Cecilia O'Keeffe. Major William Charles Yelverton gained the rank of [[Major (British Army)|Major]] in the service of the [[Royal Artillery]]. He was invested as a [[Knight]], [[Order of the Medjidie]] 5th class. He was usually known to family and friends as Charles.

==Marriages==
[[The Honourable|The Hon.]] William Charles Yelverton (as he was [[Style (manner of address)|styled]] 1824–1870) married, firstly, [[Theresa Yelverton|Maria Theresa Longworth]] (died 1881) on 15 August 1857 in [[Rostrevor]], [[County Down]], [[Ireland]]. The marriage was dissolved. The union was childless.

He married, secondly, Mrs. Emily Marianne Forbes ([[née]] Ashworth), daughter of [[Major-General (United Kingdom)|Maj.-Gen.]] [[Charles Ashworth|Sir Charles Ashworth]] and Mary Anne Rooke, on 26 June 1858, in Trinity Chapel, [[Edinburgh]], Scotland; Emily Forbes, at the time of the marriage, was the widow of [[Professor|Prof.]] [[Edward Forbes]], the naturalist.<ref>Chloë Schama, ''Wild Romance: The True Story of a Victorian Scandal'' (2011), p. 57</ref>

==''Thelwall v. Yelverton'' lawsuit==
The validity of his first marriage was tested in the ''[[Yelverton case]]'', a 19th-century [[Ireland|Irish]] law case, which eventually resulted in a change to the law on mixed religion marriages in Ireland.<ref>History Ireland Magazine Vol.13, No.1 (2005). ''[http://www.historyireland.com/volumes/volume13/issue1/features/?id=113786 History Ireland Feature – The Yelverton Affair]''. Retrieved 21 November 2011</ref>

Under a Statute of King George II (19 Geo. 2. c. 13), any marriage between a [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] (Popish) and a Protestant or a marriage between two Protestants celebrated by a Catholic priest was null and void. Between 21 February 1861 and 4 March 1861, the trial of ''Thelwall v. Yelverton'' found that even though Major Yelverton was a [[Protestant]], and Miss Longworth a [[Roman Catholic]], and though they had been married by a Roman Catholic [[priest]], the marriage was valid. In March 1861 he was suspended from all military duties. On 28 July 1864 on appeal, the decision of ''Thelwall v. Yelverton'' was reversed, and the [[House of Lords]] decided that William's first marriage was illegal, and therefore his second marriage was valid.<ref>''[https://books.google.com/books?id=THsDAAAAQAAJ&dq=%22Yelverton+v+Longworth%22&pg=PA743 Yelverton v. Longworth (1864) 2 Paterson 1256, 4 Macqueen 745]''</ref>

==Children==
[[Major (British Army)|Major]] [[The Honourable|The Hon.]] William Charles Yelverton and Mrs. Emily Marianne Yelverton ([[née]] Ashworth) had four children:
*[[Captain (British Army and Royal Marines)|Captain]] The Hon. [[Barry Yelverton, 5th Viscount Avonmore|Barry Nugent Yelverton, 5th Viscount Avonmore]] (1859–1885)
*William Walter Aglionby Yelverton (1860–1861)
*Olive Ursula Yelverton (1861–1861)
*Hon. [[Algernon Yelverton, 6th Viscount Avonmore|Algernon William Yelverton, 6th Viscount Avonmore]] (1866–1910)

==Later life==
Major Yelverton outlived his older brother, thus succeeding his father in the [[viscountcy]] in the [[Peerage of Ireland]] in October 1870. Henceforth he was [[Style (manner of address)|styled]] as [[The Right Honourable|The Rt. Hon.]] [[Viscount Avonmore|The 4th Viscount Avonmore]].

Lord Avonmore died in [[Biarritz]] in April 1883.
