This:
all original furnishings of the house were returned to the family estate in Schwegerhoff, Germany. Upon their return to Schwegerhoff, they were moved to the Droste Museum in Meersburg, Germany in 1948. From there they were brought to Oregon, USA by the Baroness Helene von Bothmer in 1990, where they remained in her collection until her death, February 23rd 1995. In 1998 they were brought to Victoria, B.C., Canada by Baron George von Bothmer zu Schwegerhoff and his wife Baroness Julie von Bothmer where they were placed upon the auctioneers block in April of 1999
and here he (?) replies to questions/accusations:

Yah Montreux was East of St. Charles, but 1322 Rockland is indeed where the "Baron" was living - the property also touches Joan Cresc and Royal Terrace.
I'll take your word for it since the proof I have to the contrary is far from conclusive. Get this though, the guy's full name and title isn't "Baron George von Bothmer zu Schwegerhof", believe it or not, that's actually the Coles notes version. His full name and title is, "Baron George Criser Graf und Frieherr von Bothmer zu Schwegerhoff"! And I thought middle-easterners had long names/titles! I actually met the guy years ago (he was a friend of a friend) and was introduced to him as simply, "George". Had I known the proper protocol, I would have bent down on one knee and kissed his hand.
All sarcasm aside, the guy may actually be royalty, i'm not exactly an expert in the field.

He's totally bogus and didn't have a dime.
Naive royalty-thirsty Victorians swallowed his hook.
King of a trailer park maybe. Not even "real" nobility like the US swindler "Sir" Allan Stanford. He bought his "knighthood" with a generous contribution to the Old Politician's Home in Antigua, that notable bastion of clean and transparent government

Montreux was not ever 1322 Rockland. It was on Rockland, just east of St. Charles. The contact page on Montreux's old (??) site doesn't give a street address, unfortunately. (?? question marks because it looks like Peggy Claude-Pierre is working ...somewhere?, so, not defunct?)

100 chickens will run afowl of quota regs. Best stop at 99.

Is the property zoned for farming? Surely 100 chickens must be pushing the limit of what constitutes personal use.
