I considered that too, but he was Anglo-Irish, and at the time Ireland was governed by the British, and was represented in the British Parliament, and the novel is set in London. I'd say let it go, but...leave it to the OP? That was Bat Outtaheck.

Re Stoker --- The same applies to Oscar Wilde. (I should have said "England" not "London".)
If Bat comes back he can alter it, but we could move on. :-)
