From February 1960 until November 2002, he held the courtesy title Lord Mauchline. Loudoun was born in England and educated at Ampleforth College in Yorkshire, but emigrated to Jerilderie, New South Wales as a teen, where he was a rice farmer and family man.[2] He was the heir-general of George Plantagenet, the younger brother of Edward IV of England. If Edward IV had been illegitimate and the crown of England had descended by male-preference primogeniture before 1500, then George (and his heirs) would have been monarchs of England. Loudoun died on 30 June 2012 in New South Wales.[3] Early lifeAbney-Hastings was born in Sussex, England, to Captain Walter Strickland Lord and Barbara Abney-Hastings, 13th Countess of Loudoun, and later lived at Ashby-de-la-Zouch in Leicestershire.[4] As a youth he was educated at Ampleforth College in North Yorkshire, before moving to Australia when he was 18 years old.[5] Claim to the English throne{{Further|Alternative successions of the English crown}}In 2004, Britain's Real Monarch, a documentary broadcast on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom, repeated the claim that Abney-Hastings, as the senior descendant of George Plantagenet, 1st Duke of Clarence, is the rightful King of England. This argument involves two disputed claims: first, that Edward IV of England was illegitimate,[6] based on the accusation that his supposed father, Richard, Duke of York, was absent at the time when Edward is thought to have been conceived; and second, that the Plantagenet crown should have descended by male-preference cognatic primogeniture instead of agnatic primogeniture and conquest. Also, Henry VI had placed an attainder on Edward after he was restored to the throne, and named George, Duke of Clarence, as heir to the throne after Henry VI and his legitimate issue. Personal views and familyAbney-Hastings was a committed Australian republican and expressed no interest in pursuing his claim to the throne, although he was amused by it.[7] He refrained from using his title publicly.[8] Abney-Hastings had two sons and three daughters with his wife, Noelene Margaret (née McCormick; married 1969).[9] His eldest son, Simon, held the courtesy title Lord Mauchline until his father's death on 30 June 2012.[10] Until his death, the 14th Earl was one of the seven co-heirs to the Barony of Grey de Ruthyn.
Abney-Hastings was a councillor of the Jerilderie Shire, elected in 2004 and re-elected in 2008.[11] ReferencesCitations1. ^{{cite news |url = http://tributes.heraldsun.com.au/obituaries/heraldsun-au/obituary-search.aspx?daterange=1&countryid=11&stateid=201&affiliateid=2413 |publisher = HeraldSun.com |title = Herald Sun Obituaries |deadurl = yes |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20120502174423/http://tributes.heraldsun.com.au/obituaries/heraldsun-au/obituary-search.aspx?daterange=1&countryid=11&stateid=201&affiliateid=2413 |archivedate = 2 May 2012 |df = dmy-all }} 2. ^{{cite news|url=http://ashbyhastingscc.hitscricket.com/pages/page_291/TheRightfulKing.aspx|publisher=AshbyHastingsCC.HitsCricket.com|title=Ashby Hastings Patron - The Rightful King of England ?|date=24 October 2007}} 3. ^'Rightful' King of England dies in NSW 4. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://www.zoominfo.com/people/Hastings_Mike_490484571.aspx|publisher=Zoominfo.com|title=Mike Hastings|date=24 October 2007}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.connectionnewspapers.com/article.asp?article=82386&paper=67&cat=207|publisher=ConnectionNewspapers.com|title=Getting to Know … Michael Abney-Hastings, 14th Earl of Loudoun|date=24 October 2007|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070703043313/http://www.connectionnewspapers.com/article.asp?article=82386&paper=67&cat=207|archivedate=3 July 2007|df=dmy-all}} 6. ^[https://news.yahoo.com/rightful-heir-british-monarchy-dies-australia-101205966.html 'Rightful heir' to British monarchy dies in Australia] AFP – Thu, 5 July 2012, Yahoo!
