Under normal circumstances, when a man is named "Lord Firstname Lastname",
this means that he is a younger son of a British Duke or Marquess. I
checked the British Dukes and Marquesses at this time period (19th
century), and though several had younger sons named "Lord Alfred", I
couldn't find one who had a son named "Lord Alfred Heneley".
