As soon as Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, the spouse of
Princess Charlotte, was naturalized as a British subject, the Prince
Regent commissioned him a general in the British army.
Prince George offered to raise Leopold to the peerage as Duke of Kendal.
Leopold refused the dukedom.
Why did Prince Leopold refuse the dukedom?
