[78-L] Albert Ketelby question

[David Lennick]

According to WackyPackia, his father didn't spell it with the accent.

Obviously wookie doesn't like the accent either. Hmm. Try removing the %C3%A8 
and replacing it with an unaccented "e". It comes out fine as Alan quotes it 
(second "e", actually, not the third) but gets messed up in the Wacky link.

I did not know that Clifford Curzon was Ketelbey's nephew. Wonder if Frederic 
Curzon is any kin to either of them? I can't find a connection other than the 
surname, and Frederic also was a renowned composer of light music.
