[MR] A Question for the Earl Marshal

[jbrmm266 at aol.com]

To whom did you intend to address this, Marie-Hélène?  Do you condider the entire populace to be such an authority?  :-)
 
The correct title for the Marshallate officer of any group lower than a Kingdom is Knight Marshal.
 
When Atlantia was a Principality, she had a Knight Marshal.  (I maintained that it should have been Viscount Marshal, but nobody bought that idea.)

Mainly because you are the authority on the Marshallete:
   
  What is the correct title of the marshal in charge of a canton or barony? 
   
  I have heard and seen several arrangements: Knight's Marshal, Knights Marshal, 
and Knight Marshal; which of these (if any) is correct?
   
   
  Just asking for my own sanity.
   
  Marie Hélène of the New Forest, GOA
