This copy belonged to William Courthope who carried the title Rouge Croix. Courthope was the editor of Debrett's Peerage and Baronetage between 1833 and 1839. He gave up editing in 1839 when he was appointed Rouge Croix. Volume I is inscribed to him by the wife of a friend and Courthope wrote, "These books were given to me after Norroy's death by his widow, the writer of the above / William Courthope / Rouge Croix Oct. 1857." On the front pastedown of volume I is a handmade bookplate on parchment for William Courthope showing a stag, a hand grasping an anchor, a shield with a gold 5-point star and three black 6-pointed designs; underneath are the words "My hope is not broken." These volumes were later purchased by Robert A. Stewart, Esq. of Guelph, Ontario, Canada from Bernard Quaritch of London. A carbon copy of Stewart's letter and the invoice are tipped in the front.
