Interesting historical characters you've gotten so far

[Maleficus]

I have had "Daniel Defoe" among my gentlemen, and a certain "Jetro Thull"...

Yeah, I had Jethro Tull before I knew who he was. My immediate thoughts were: "Why do I have 70's prog rock band on my payroll?"


And yes, I felt pretty stupid once I'd Wiki'd him.....


Of course, we've all had John Churchill. Also, William Cowper is my current Prime Minister (Or First Lord of the Treasury, as the title actually was back then) and John Smith was my chancellor until he recently died.


I've had more, but listing them all could take a very long time.....
