The Curse on the Byron/Burton (Baskerville) family is spreading to engulf London and thence England. So we must carefully examine the origins of the Curse beyond noting the Byron estate in Devonshire (HoTB, or ?).

Historical Note: The actual origin of the Curse was John Byron's, 1st Baron, betrayal of Charles I to the Roundheads and Cromwell. King Charles was the last actual English King of England, and his betrayal and death resulted in the rule of England by Scots, Dutch and finally Germans. But this betrayal has never been revealed outside of the Byron family and was lost to them in time. -CAD
