Nota:
John North was the fifth of fourteen children of Sir Dudley North, 4th Baron North.
Francis North, 1st Baron Guilford, was the third son of Sir Dudley North, 4th Baron North. Like many upper-class Englishmen of his time, Fr. North was devoted to music. Less typically for his time and class he had a keen interest in musical theory (as did his brother Roger), and published a book on the subject, A Philosophical essay on musick (1677), which has been praised as "an admirably clear exposition of the physical basis of music". Francis North's musical notations have been described as the earliest known examples of synthetic phonograms.
Dudley North, 4th Baron North, was an English politician, who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1628 and 1660.
