Grosvenor (surname) Grosvenor is a surname derived from Hugh Le Grand Veneur , a member of a Norman French family that aided William the Conqueror in 1066. "Le Grand Veneur" literally means "the Master Huntsman" in French , an elevated title in William's 11th-century French court. Initially, Hugh was called Hugh Lupus. Lupus was portly, and his townsmen gradually changed the appellation from "Le Grand Veneur", "the Master Huntsman," to "Le Gros Veneur", "the Fat Huntsman", and Hugh wore the epithet with pride.Baronets/Marquesses/Dukes of Westminster :Sir Richard Grosvenor, 1st Baronet Sir Richard Grosvenor, 2nd Baronet, son of 1st baronet Sir Thomas Grosvenor, 3rd Baronet, grandson of 2nd baronet Sir Richard Grosvenor, 4th Baronet, eldest surviving son of 3rd baronet Sir Thomas Grosvenor, 5th Baronet, second surviving son of 3rd baronet Sir Robert Grosvenor , 6th Baronet, third surviving son of 3rd baronet, father of 7th baronet/1st earl Richard Grosvenor, 1st Earl Grosvenor, son of the 6th baronet Robert Grosvenor, 1st Marquess of Westminster , son of the 1st earl Richard Grosvenor, 2nd Marquess of Westminster , son of the 1st marquees Hugh Lupus Grosvenor, 1st Duke of Westminster , son of the 2nd marquess *Lord Hugh Grosvenor, son of Hugh Grosvenor, 1st Duke of Westminster Hugh Richard Arthur Grosvenor , 2nd Duke of Westminster , grandson of 1st duke by eldest son William Grosvenor, 3rd Duke of Westminster , grandson of 1st duke by third son Gerald Hugh Grosvenor, 4th Duke of Westminster, grandson of 1st duke by elder son from second wife Robert George Grosvenor, 5th Duke of Westminster , brother of 4th duke Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor, 6th Duke of Westminster , eldest son of 5th duke Hugh Grosvenor, 7th Duke of Westminster, son of 6th dukeBarons Ebury Robert Grosvenor, 1st Baron Ebury Robert Wellesley Grosvenor, 2nd Baron Ebury Robert Victor Grosvenor, 3rd Baron Ebury Francis Egerton Grosvenor, 4th Baron Ebury Robert Egerton Grosvenor, 5th Baron Ebury Francis Egerton Grosvenor, 8th Earl of Wilton , 6th Baron EburyEditors of National Geographic ">National Geographic (magazine)">National Geographic Gilbert Hovey Grosvenor, first editor of National Geographic Magazine and president of the National Geographic Society Melville Bell Grosvenor, editor of National Geographic Magazine and president of the National Geographic Society, son of Gilbert Hovey Grosvenor Gilbert Melville Grosvenor, editor of National Geographic Magazine , son of Melville Bell Grosvenor Edwin S.
