    Downton Abbey is in Yorkshire

    Lord Grantham was the Lord Lieutenant for Yorkshire

    York is a frequent locale

    the Drews live at Yew Tree Farm, later Mr Mason move into Yew Tree Farm 

    Rose and Atticus met one stormy day in York, after marriage they move to New York

    Martha Levinson (Cora's mother) lives in New York City

    Inspector Vyner from Scotland Yard

    the series ended on New Year's Eve celebrations 

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    blushing to see that I skipped "X" but looking over all the characters, the actors, and the places, I can't find any X's

    so the next person can do X if they find any, or Z (two actors' first names was all I could find)
