Bay Middleton information


"Bay" Middleton as caricatured by Théobald Chartran in Vanity Fair, June 1883

Captain William George ("Bay") Middleton (16 April 1846 – 9 April 1892) was a noted British horseman and an officer of the Royal Lancers. He was equerry to John Spencer, 5th Earl Spencer, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. When Empress Elisabeth of Austria hunted in Britain, he was her pilot. He was described as "one of the best riders to hounds that ever lived, an amusing dare-devil and very good company."[1]

His nickname "Bay" was either a reference to his reddish-brown hair, or derived from the name of the winner of The Derby winner in 1836.
