L is for Lace, lots of lace.. and beauty marks..

Round 5 begins the more obscure conflicts in this BPD Series. For lack of a better term, I shall call this the "Lace Wars" round. CORRECT answers shall be bounded by the years 1700 and 1800, EXCLUDING the American Revolutionary War, and the NORTH AMERICAN PHASE of the SEVEN YEARS WAR (we may revisit those separately).

The Magick Letter is L.

Standard Rules: If naming a person, the magic letter can stand for a first, commonly known middle name, or last name. If naming a place, it should be the first letter of any word in the place title. If naming a thing, the magick letter should be prominent and recognizable.. It's not rocket science. In all cases, articles or common words (the, if, and, but) will not count as Magick Letters.
