NaNoWriMo question for my friends

So, the novel I am working on is set in an alternate 1800 in England. History diverges in the late 1500s.

Now, my characters are off to listen to some political speakers. Do I make them up from whole cloth, do I use thinly veiled versions of historical figures or actual historical figures themselves 'adjusted' to the changed history? What are you opinions, dear readers.
