Rockingham Club : ウィキペディア英語版 | Rockingham Club
There have been two "Rockingham Clubs" ==The original Rockingham Club (founded 1753)== This was founded in York, England and had its first meeting on 23 December 1753 in the George Inn, York. It was named after 'Lord Rockingham' (Charles Watson-Wentworth, 2nd Marquess of Rockingham, KG, PC (13 May 1730 – 1 July 1782)), who during his term of office as British Prime Minister repealed the Stamp Act, reducing the tax burden on the American colonies. Rockingham also backed the claim for American independence and in 1782, when he was appointed Prime Minister for a second time, upon taking office he acknowledged the independence of the United States, initiating an end to British involvement in the Revolutionary War. Members included: * John Carr (architect)
