Philip was lost in a storm off Memel in a ship called the Agatha of Lübeck.

St Andrew, Wimpole, Cambridgeshire
(Click on an image for a larger version)

St Andrew is a dramatic example of what happens when a noble family entirely dominates a village. There was a medieval church here, surrounded by a little medieval village, but little of it now exists: Only a small side chapel remains,and even that has been restored almost out of all recognition. The rest of the church is a rebuilding of 1749.  

Philip Yorke, Viscount Royston (7 May 1784 – 7 April 1808), was a British traveller and politician. He was returned to parliament for Reigate in 1806, a seat he held until April 1808, when he was lost in a storm off Memel in a ship called the Agatha of Lübeck.
