Win an iPad - Solve the Historical Puzzles for a chance to win!

Win an iPadThe characters in the questions to follow were all well-known personalities of their time. The questions may seem difficult at first, but don't worry, TheGenealogist gives you the tools to find the answers.

If you haven't already got access to TheGenealogist, simply go to TheGenealogist for a free trial. Here you will also find the full competition details, terms and conditions, and most importantly the entry form for you to submit your answers.

Click here to find some helpful hints on finding the answers

The questions are:

1. Henry Pelham, Whig politician and Prime Minister from 1743 to 1754, left a comprehensive Will. Looking at the original document, what was the maximum amount of money Henry Pelham's executors could spend on his vault?

2. 1851 was the first census to show the occupation of 'aeronaut'. Can you find which aeronaut is the odd one out? They were all regularly in the news at the time.

3. James Scott, the 1st Duke of Monmouth and illegitimate son of Charles II was executed by beheading in 1685 after making an unsuccessful attempt at the Battle of Sedgemoor to depose his uncle, King James II, commonly called the Monmouth Rebellion. From the original record, how many men did he initially land with in Lyme Regis on the 11th June 1685 as he launched the Monmouth rebellion?
