The Earl of Sandwich - Montagu family

What I know, that Lady Mary Wortley Montagu had with Alexander Pope only acquaintance.
John Montagu had among other children by the singer Martha Ray, also Basil Montagu.

Does that mean that Lady Mary was Basil's grandmother?

The poets were a bit of a red herring, sorry about that.

Thanks

Hmm, maybe Setanta will pop in here to give you some help.

very interesting. source?

I've got that Lady Mary Wortley Montagu lived from 1689 to 1762. So which Edward did she marry?

I hope I'm not confusing you ...... it's bad enough I've confused myself!
