Paget's grandfather, The 7th Marquis of Anglesey, George Charles Henry Victor Paget, a published author who was born on October 8 1922, passed away at aged 90 in 2012. His writing career spanned over 30 years. Since The 7th Marquis had come from a family of distinguished soldiers, he started in the early 70's writing to honor the memory of his ancestors, a magisterial eight-volume History of the British Cavalry, 1816-1919. The first volume was published in 1973. The 8 volume writing project occupied him for 25 years. Lord Anglesey described the project as, "An amateur hobby in which I happen to have indulged". Paget herself if she so chose, could easily develop interesting projects, just based of of her own families interesting history.
