Rugge-Price Baronets: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Price, later Rugge-Price Baronetcy, of Spring Grove in Richmond in the County of Surrey, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 2 February 1804 for Charles Price, Member of Parliament for the City of London from 1802 to 1812 and Lord Mayor of London from 1802 to 1803.
The fifth Baronet assumed in 1874 by Royal license the additional surname of Rugge. Another member of the family to gain distinction was George Uvedale Price, son of Richard Price, fourth son of the first Baronet. He was a General in the Army.

Alfred's father died when he was aged 4. He married Patience in April 1870 and moved to India 7 years later, where he was "... the Editor of The Pioneer, the leading English Daily of India..."
He relates in his book, The Occult World that: "...on the first occasion of my making Madame Blavatsky's acquaintance she became a guest at my home at Allahabad and remained there for six weeks..."
In 1880 Helena Blavatsky and Henry Steel Olcott visited the Sinnetts at their summer-home in Simla. The Mahatma letters, which generated the controversy that later helped lead to the split of the Theosophical Society, were mostly written to Sinnett or his wife, Patience.
By 1889, Sinnett was back in England, and asked Leadbeater to come back to England to tutor his son Percy and George Arundale. Leadbeater agreed and brought with him one of his pupils Jinarajadasa.
Sinnett was later President of the London Lodge of the Society.

From "LIFE OF J. DEACON HUME" p.5
James Hume, after the birth of James Deacon, the subject of this volume, was appointed Commissioner of the Customs. But at the time to which we refer, he was the deputy of a noble duke, who had a patent place in that department.
He obtained the appointment through the favour and influence of his uncle, Dr.Hume, Bishop of Salisbury. The duke's place was one of considerable value, arising from fees. The salary of the deputy did not exceed £300 a year. Mr. Deacon Hume was greatly attached to his father, who was a man of very amiable character, as well as of considerable ability. The Rev. Edward Smedley was accustomed to speak of him as " without exception, the best man and the most delightful companion he had ever familiarly known."
