      There is a legal procedure for taking down a blogger requires going to court to prove you have been libeled. Since Alex, 13th Duke of Manchester, was unable to accomplish this because the content is documented you can't either. You are not mentioned on the site. . There is an heir, Alex's only son. There were no children born of Alex's first marriage.

      Alexander Michael Charles David Francis George Edward William Kimble Drogo Montagu, Viscount Mandeville1 b. 13 May 1993 (Question of Legitimacy has been raised) - However, it is expected Alex Jr. will inherit the title in due time. But this has no impact on the issue of this site which documents the activities of Alexander, 13th Duke of Manchester.

      Have you contacted Alex, Jr. with news of your claim? By the way, why do you think you have a claim to the title? It cannot be acquired by purchase, only by inheritance.

      If I don't take it down you are the Duke? The logic evades me.
