Probably George Stanhope 6th Earl of Chesterfield 1805-1866 (i), The Stanhope family owned Bretby Hall near Burton-on-Trent (ii) so Bob may have taken the Dart from London to Sutton Coldfield and then travelled the 25 miles or so to Bretby (probably just a day's walk for a fit young man of the time)
