In 1895 $2.5 million. Can we get a sensible figure in today's dollars? The figure has recently been upped by an anon. editor with a checkered career of altering statistics in Wikipedia. -- Wetman 06:36, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
Penultimate means second best or second to last. So who was the ultimate marital prize of the Victorian age? Binabik80 18:04, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
Height
I recently enjoyed a tour of Blenheim Palace and the guide mentioned that CV was 6 feet tall, hence perhaps the posture issue? In any case, her genes are still in the family, since the current (11th) Duke is 6'5"". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.132.153.100 ( talk) 10:48, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
The term half-Cuban, half-American as applied to Consuelo's godmother makes no sense. Consuelo Yznaga's father was a Cuban diplomat who moved permanently to the U.S. and Consuelo was born in Louisiana. She was 100% "American," not half. -- Michael K Smith Talk 00:43, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
Dealing with ethnicity as a topic, I understand what both the original author and you mean. The term "half-English-American" might be a bit awkward, though, and may not be thoroughly true. LTC (Ret.) David J. Cormier ( talk) 15:25, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
Can anyone more knowledgeable confirm or deny this blog post which claims she favored/learned Esperanto? Thanks. Pikolas ( talk) 13:23, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

The non-encyclopedic tone of this article is incredibly distracting. Too many adjectives & adverbs, and excessively judgmental & value-laden — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.230.137.44 ( talk) 00:41, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
I suppose you are right. It is a pleasure to read, however. Ttulinsky ( talk) 00:28, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
