Baronetcy
[edit]In addition to his creation as baron, Peter's father was also a baronet. This is nowhere referred to in the article on Peter, although presumably Peter inherited this hereditary honour as well. Doesn't this need to be included? 166.152.222.225 (talk) 23:52, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
Year of death
[edit]1962 or 1963? Respectfully, Tiyang (talk) 07:07, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
School
[edit]The book "Mothers of Scouting" by Edward Rowan, [page 61), says he failed the exams to get into Charterhouse and Sandhurst an that's why he ended up with the police force. It also says he may have had a learning disability. PumpkinSky talk 15:50, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

Russian descent ???
[edit]From WHERE does this spring ? "Category:English people of Russian descent" ??? Someone having a laugh ? Peter's mother Olave Baden-Powell's mother's father, George Hill (then 41, and in England!), described himself in the 1861 Census as a "Russia Merchant", as the Hills had been (for at least four generations) in St. Petersburg; but most (all?) had married Englishwomen in England, and most of the children were born (and educated) in England - no "Russian blood" anywhere !
