[edit] Knighthood/ennobling?

I thought that an American effectively renounced their citizenship if they accepted a peerage from a foreign government? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rmx256 (talk • contribs) 15:20, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

At the point of his ennobling the title was purely honorific. In the literature it looks as if from that year forward he was referred to as "count", but there was no peerage involved. • Freechild'sup? 15:30, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
