John Montagu




John Montagu was the 4th Earl of Sandwich He was born 3 November 1718.

Not only was John Montagu and drop dead sexy man but he also had the the smarts to back it up. He's known and beloved by all wether you know it or not. If you like food between two slices of bread aka sandwich you can thank John! Now this is not confirmed but it's said that he has invented the sandwich of bread and meat while at the gambling table:-/...

He also had a quite successful political career as Secretary of state for the northern department, Lord of admiralty, and Postmaster General.

ve to say he was a salty salty dog, he had an affair with a very accomplished Opera singer Martha Ray. He also fathered as many as 9 children but 5 are irradicable. One of whom was a very talented philanthropist!


I believe this photo is what got him caught (photo taken from google)
