tronetla, widow of the 3d earl, that the surname of her son

clear that he was not the progenitor of the family of Han *'

This title is the most ancient of any in Great Britain,
having continued, without interruption, in the lineal course
of descent, for near six centuries : while nearly all the other
ancient titles have been changed in their destinations by re-
signations and new patents, this earldom has remained unal#
tered, and been transmitted through twenty generations, in the
legal order of descent, to Elizabeth, the present possessor.
William, 1st earl of Sutherland, was great-grandson of
Freskin, a Fleming, who settled in Scotland during the reign
of David I. His father, Hugh Freskin, had obtained the
territory of Sutherland forfeited by the earl of Caithness,
when he rebelled, 1197 ; and he was created an earl, by Alex-
ander II., in reward of his assistance in crashiiig the rebellion

The origin of the royal house of Stewart is traced by the
inde&tigable researches of Ohalmers to Alak Fitz-Fleald,
a Norman oompanion of William the Conqueror. He had 3
KBs; 1. fFi/Ztam, ancestor of the Fitz- Alans, earls of Arundel
m Endand; 2. Walier, who settled in Scotland, and obtained
from king David I. the office of lord high steward, from
vhenoe his descendants adopted the name of Stewart ; 3. Simon,
vho also settled in Scotland, and was progenitor of the family
of Boyd.
Alexander, high steward of Scotland, great-grandson of
Walter, had 2 sons ; I.James, whose grandson, Robert, ascended
the throne of Scotland 1371, and whose male line ended in the
person of king James V., father of Mary queen of Scots; 2. sir
Jbhn, of Bonkyll, who had 4 sons, who left issue, viz. : Alex-
ander, ancestor of the earls of Angus, whose male line became
«tinct 1377 ; Alan, ancestor of the house of Darnley, earls and
dukes of Lennox, and of the kings of Scotland and England ;
Walter,

i
Walter, of -Oarlies, whose great-^and-daughter and heir m,
the ancestor of the earl of Galloway ; James, ancestor of the ^^
earls of Atholl, Buchan, and Traquair, and the lords Lorn ^
and Innermeath. ^i
This hranch of the house of Stewavt is descended from sir ^
- William Stewart, of Jedworth, who lived in the beginning of ^
the 15th century, and whose precise connexion with the royil ^
line has been the subject of much and warm controversy. On <«
the part of the earl it is contended, that the above sir WiUiami ^
was second son of sir Alexander Stewart, of Damley, who was ti
grandfather of the first Stewart, earl of Lennox ; and in that ^i
■case, the whole male line of sir John Stewart, sir Alexander** ^
eldest son, having failed on the death of .cardinal York, in ^
1807, the earl of Oalloway must be the imdoubted male heir l(
and representative of the Damley family. That sir WiUUun lb
was of the house of Damley, is clear from the words of the k{
.patent creating his descendant earl of Galloway, wherein his ^
origin, ^^ ab antiqttd domo de Lennox derivata,*^ is ezpreiBljr ^'
enumerated as one of the reasons of his elevation to Uie M
.peerage. '\
Sir John Stewa&t, son of sir William, m. Marion, d|u ^
and heir of sir Walter Stewart, of Dalswinton, who was mm ^
of sir John Stewart, of Dalswinton, one of the hostages for ^

The family of Lindsay is of great antiquity in Scotland,
^here it has spread into numerous branches. The earldom
«f Crawford, the most ancient pn the union roll, was conferred,
by king Robert III., on sir David Lindsay, 21 April, 1398.
Of this distinguished house the earl of Balcarras is iin«
dnibtedly the chief, being descended in the male line from
WnJter-Lind«ay, 3d son of Alexander, 2d earl of Crawford ;
and the whole male descendants of the 2 eldest sons of that
earl having failed. David, 7th earl of Crawford, having been
tari^arrnisly treated by his sons, disinherited them, and set-
tied his title and estate on sir David Lindsay, of Edzell, great-
fsrandson of AValter above mentioned, who consequently be-
t-dme the 8th earl of Crawford ; but, notwithstanding he had
several sons, and one of them ancestor of the earl of J3o/cor-
ras, the generosity of his disposition induced him to make a
X 3 8ettl«mexi\
760 SCOTS I»££RAG£.
settlement of the honours and estate on the rightftil heir in
blood, David^ grandson of the 7th earl, reserving to himself,
during his life only, the title of earl of Crawford, and a com-
petent provision out of the estate, to support him according
to his rank. He expressly conditioned, that, in failure of the
heirs male of the body of David^ above-mentioned, who, in
virtue of that settlement, became 9th earl of Crawford, die
honours and estate should revert to the descendants of his
own body, as next heirs male. Liuhvick^ 14th earl of Craw«
ford, having engaged on the side of king Charles L, in the
civil wars, was taken prisoner, and condemned to be exeoated,
by the parliament of Scotland ;^ by whom his title and estates
were conveyed to John, earl of Xifuiffoy, lord high treasurer
of Scotland, a remote branch of the family, which were de-
scended from the principal stock, previous to their creation
as earls of Crawford. The earl of Lindsay being doubtful of
the validity of this grant by parliament, entered into a con*
tract with the earl of Crawford, then in prison, under sen-
tence of death, to whom he gave assurances of saving him
from the hands of the executioner. By this transaction,
Crawford agreed to resign his title in favour of Lindsay, re-
servii^ that the resignation should not take effect in the
event of his leaving issue male of his own body. On his
death, without issue, the earl of Lindsay became, accordingly,
15th earl of Crawford; and thus the succession was con-
veyed away from the legitimate heirs male. The male line of
his body failed in GeorgCy 20th earl of Crawford, who died
withont issue, in 1808.
Sir David Lindsay, of Balcarras (grandson of John
Lindsay, 2d son of David, 8th earl of Crawford, above-named,)
was served heir to John, his father, 19 May, 1601 : when
Hing Charles I. visited Scotland, he was advanced to the dig-
nity of the peerage, by the title of lord Lindsay^ of Balcarras,

Seotland from falling into the hands of Cromwell, during
whose nsurpatiou they had been carried to Dtmmore caxtle,
hsth as the earl Marischal, in virtue of his office, had a right
to keep them, and it was thought a place of safety, Duunoter
being besi^ed. Sir John Keith got the regalia safely nni-
ve^ away, and deposited under ground, in the church of
Kmneft. Sir John then sailed for France, where ho pretended
Id have carried these valuable articles. On his return home,
be wu apprehended and examined ; dedaring tliat he had

was dropped. He had a charter of the lands of (Hiskieben,

George, lOth carl Marischal, grandson of George, (elder bro-
ther of the 1st earl of Kintore,) upon whose issue male the
title was entailed by the charter of 1694 ; but the honours be-
came dormant, as lord Marischal would not allow a clause,
enabling him to inherit titles, to be inserted in the act of par-
liament by which he was allowed to inherit estates. On the
earl Mari^chal's death, 23 May, 1778, the titles and estates
of Kintore devolved on Anthont-Adrian, 8th lord Fal-
' coner, of Halkertoun, above-named, whose paternal descent
we now proceed to state.
The Falconers, of Halkertoun, derive their deseent from
Ranulphus, filius Walteri de Lunkyir (Lumgair), who ob-
tained the office of king^s falconer from William the Lion,
from whom he got a charter of the lands of Luthra, Balbegno,
and several others, co. Kincardine, near the castle of Kincar-
dine, where king William frequently resided : from this office
he assumed the name of Falconer.

Sir John Campbell, b. 1635 ; being a principal creditor
of George, 6th earl of Caithness, whose debts are said to have
exceeded a million of marks, that earl, 8 Oct., 1672, made
a disposition of his whole estate and earldom, with the heri-
table jurisdictions and titles, to sir John Campbell^ of Glen-
orchy, who took the whole of his lordship^s debts to himself:
on which disposition, a charter passed, 11 Jan., 1673, investing
sir John with the lands and earldom of Caithness, 27 Feb.,
1673. The eari of Caithness reserved his life-rent of the title,
and an annuity for life of 12,000 marks to him and his coun-
tess, and the survivor of them. The charter contained also a
danse of redemption of the earldom within a limited period,
and an obligatitm on sir John Campbell, and his issue, to
iKume and use the name of Sindair, and arms of the house
of Caithness, when he should be possessed of the earldom irre-
rocably. George, earl of Caithness^ dying at Thurso East, May
1676, sir John Campbell, who was then residing in family
with them, being in possession of the earldom, obtained a
patent, creating him earl of Caithness^ dated at ^VTiitehall,

retain the title of earl of Caithness, corif erred upon him by
the above patent, as the privy council, under the reference of
the authority of parliament, found that George Sinclair,
of Keiss, the heir male of the last earl, had a right to the
dignity of earl of Caithness, and he in consequence took place
as su<ii in parliament, 15 July, 1681. Sir John Campbell,

Lord Haddo, b, 28 Sept., 1816 ; 2. Alexander, b, Dec 1817 ;
Frances ; and 4. a son, b, March 1824.
The origin of the illustrious house of Gordon will be found
under the title of Duke of Gordon ; but it may be here ob-
served, that the principal line terminated early in an heiress,
who m. sir Alexander Seton, whose desicendants assumed the
maternal name ; while the family represented by the earl of
Aberdeen, has continued uninterruptedly in a male line of
descent. A current tradition is, that his lordship derives his
descent from the Bertrand de Goiirdon, who shot the fatal
arrow at king Richard Coeur de Lion, and that the crest of
the Aberdeen family, two arms, in the act of letting fly an
arrow from a bow, and their motto, ^^fortuna seqtiatur," bear
allusion to th% event. Crawfurd, on the other hand, in his
lives of the officers of state, derives the earl from a sir William
Gordon, a younger brother of the principal house living in the
reign of king Edward I. of Enghmd. In consequence, how-
ever, of the imperfect state of the Scotch records, and the
destruction of the family papers during the civil wars, the
exact descent of the Aberdeen family cannot be clearly ascer-
tained higher than
Patrick Gordon, of Methlic, slain at the battle of Ar-
broath, 1445 : 'eighth in lineal descent from whom was

The surname of Hope is of great antiquity in Scotland.

• ran Scotland, 1296. Another John de Hope had a protection
•from king Henry IV. of England, 1405. John de Hope^ the
- immediate ancestor of this family, is said to have come from
France, in the reign of Magdalen, queen of Jame» V.^ 1537 ;
settling in Scotland, he m, Elizabeth Gumming^ by whom he
had Edwaed, who was one of the most considerable inha-
bitants of Edinburgh in the reign of queen Mary ; and being
a great promoter of the reformation, was chosen one of the
< commissioners for that metropolis to that parliament, 1560 :
'he was father of Henry Hope, a considerable, merchant,
who, having frequent occasion to visit the continent, m., in
'one' of these excursions, a French lady, Jaqueline de Tott,
• and by her h^ 2 sons ; 1. Henry ^ ancestor of the great and
( opulent branch of the Hope8\ long settled in Amsterdam ;
• and, 2. Thomas, entering upon the study of the law, made
so rapid a progress in judicial knowledge, that he was, at an
early age, c^ed to the bar : his practice was, however,
limited till 1606, when he undertook the defence of the 6
' ministers tried for high treason, for denying that the king
possessed authority in matters ecclesiastical : he acquitted
'himself so much to the satisfaction of the Presbyterians at
'this important trial, that they never afterwards undertook
any business of importance without previously consulting him,
and he immediately came into the first practice in the king-
dom ; by this, in a few years, he acquired one of the most
considerable fortunes ever made at the Scots bar, which
enabled him to make great landed purchases, as between 1613
and 1642 he had charters of the lands of Grantoun, Edmons.
• toun, and Cauldcotts, co. Edinburgh ; Preston Grange, co.
Haddington ; Kerse, co. Stirling ; Mertoun, co. Berwick ;
Kinninmouth, Arnydie, Craighall, Ceres, Hilltawet, and
others, in Fife. His reputation now advanced so high, that
he was constituted king*s advocate, jointly with sir William
Oliphant, of Newton, and was created a baronet, 11 Feb.,
1628. Sir WiUiam Oliphant dying 13 April, 1628, king
Charles I. was pleased not only to appoint sir Thomas Hope
his sole advocate, but likewise to grant him several honourable
privileges not enjoyed by his predecessors : m, Elizabeth, da.

BARONS.
Mark SOMERVILLE, lord SOMERVILLE ; bom
in 1794: succeeded his half-brother, John, the late lord,
5 Oct., 1819 ; Captain of the J^oyal Artillery.
The first of this name on record, is sir Gauliier de SomeV'-r
villCy lord of Wichnour, &c., co. Stafford, and Aston-Somer-
ville, CO. Gloucester, who came into England with William
the Conqueror. He was ancestor of all the Somervilles in
Great Britain. It appears, from Rymer^s Pcedera^ vol. xi.
p. 301, that Thomas 'de Somerville, baron of Camwath^ was
one of the ambassadors who, 1423, were permitted to come
to London to treat for the ransom of their sovereign, king
James I. Thomas Dominus de Somerville, is also a warden
of the border, 1424. Thomas de Somerville of that ilk, sat as
one of the assize by whom Murdoch, duke of Albany, was
attainted of high treason. His lordship, 1386, founded, and,
1424, endowed with some lands the collegiate church of Cam-
wath, the burial-place of this ancient family : he m. Jane
Stewart, da. of sir Alexander Stewart, of Damlie ; and had
issue, William, 2d lord; and Margaret^ m, Roger Kirk-
Patrick, of Closeburn, esq. His lordship d» 1445, and was
succeeded by his son,
William, 2d lord, 13th from sir Gaultier de Somerville,
lord of Whichnour, co. Stafford, m. Jane, da. of sir John
Mowatt,
BABONS. 801
Mowatt, (of ^tannas. His lordship was present at the ooro-
nadon of king James II. at Edinburgh, 10 Mardi, 1437, And
was in great favour with that monairh ; 1449, he was ap.
pointed one of the Soots conservators of the trace between
England and Scotland, then concluded, (see Rymer's Feed.,
rcL xL p. 254) ; in 1451 he was one of the ambassadors of
Scotland nominated in a royal safe conduct, and in the same
year we find him once more a conservator of the peace, which
he had moat probably a share in the establishing, ib. 28&-900.
His lordship had issue, 1. Johk, 3d lord; and, 2. Mary, m.,
1447, Ralph Weir, esq. His lordship d. 20 Aug., 1456, and
was succeeded by his son,
JoHV, 3d lord SomerviUe, m., 1st, Helen Hepburn, da.
of lord Hailes ; and, 2dly, 20 Feb., 1445, Mary, da. of Wil-
liazn Bailzie, of Lammingtoun, esq., and had issue, sir John^
of Quathquan, b, 1 April, 1457, Ist baron of Cambusnethan,
of Uie name of Somerviiley after it was separated from the
house of Cowthally, and became a distinct family. His lord-
diip distinguished himself by his gallantry at the battle of
Sark, 1448, in which the great champion, Magnus, with the
red beard, was killed; his lordship, in 1457 &nd 1459, appears
£rotn Rymer to have been a conservator of the peace in those
years ; 1460, he attended king James II. to the siege of Rox-
barjg^ in which that monarch was killed, aged 30. His lord-
ship d. 1486, and was succeeded by his grandson, John, 4th
lord, €L 1491, and was succeeded by his brother,

1569, and was succeeded by his son,

15 Feb., 1524. His lordship enlarged the family estate con-
Bdenddy upon the following occasion : WilRam de Somervitte,
the fonnder of the Soots baronial family, was second son of
sir Walter de Somerville, of Whidmour, co. Stafford : the
&ect male liiie of this English branch of the Somervilles had
bem long ea:tinct, having ended in a sole heiress, who m,
Staffiord^nke of Biiddngham, executed temp. Henry VIII. ;
bat a ▼ery anaent branch of this family of Whichnour con-
tiiraed to'floiuish in the descendants of Hoger de Semervitte^
who having obtained from his fhther^ sir Wailter de Sqiner-
T^, of WhichAoor, the barony of Aston, co. Oloncesfer,
bestowed u^aa it the name o( SomervUle Astbn : from a long
line of aaoestony this esta,te, and the represetltation of the
Engliak house, desdended upon WilHam Somerville, esq., of
Eadstofie, ob. Warwick, and of Somerville-Aston, co. Oloa-

Kfe, tnVtdved in 'jfeciiniary difficulties, whidi, mOst probably,
a more strict attention, to hip affairs might nave prevented.
3Ir. Sdiherville had been introduced to his Idr^mp by the
ciiromstanoe of their common ancestry, which had neen an-
nounced to him by the celebrated Scots poet, Alan Ramsay,
ia Verses addressed to Mr. Somerville :
" You hoth from one great lineage spring,
Both from Somerville, who came
With William, England's conquered king.
To win fair plains and lasting fame.
*' Whichnour he left to 's eldest son,
That first-bom chief you represent ;
His second came to Caledon,
From whom our Somer*le takes descent."
Being himself without issue, and desirous to continue the
ancient estate in the same family, the poet made, 1730, an ar-
rangement with lord Somerville, by which, in consideration of
i^rtain sums, applied to the relief of burdens, he settled upon
his lordship the reversion of his estates at his death, which
ha]ijKMied 1742, when the English estates passed to the baro-
nial Iwnise of Somerville, in Scotland, with whom they still

The family of ColvtUe, in North Britain, sprang from that
of the. Colvilles in £nghuid, who had accompanied William
the Conqueror from Normandy. Philip de Colmlle settled in
Scotland in the 12th century, and flourished in the reigns of
Malcofan IV. and William the Lion; was one of the hostages
for his sovereign's freedom, by a convention with Henry II.
of England ; he was ancestor of sir Roberi Colville, who was
master

master of the hons^dld to James IV., and fell with hia royal
master at the fatal battle of Floddeii -field, anno 1513 : he was
Boooeeded by his son, shr Jmnes CohUle, director of the chan-
cery te James V., and one of the senators of justice on it»
first iiistitution : he was succeeded by his son, sir Jamew
Colrille, of East Wemyss ; m. Mai^^aret, da. of sir Koliert
Douglas, of Lodileven, (ancestor of the earls of3forton,) and
by her had S sons, James, 1st lord Colville, and Alexander^
fiommendator of Cnlross, ancestor of the present lord.
James, Ist lord, acquired great reputation as a military
commander in the wars under Henry IV. of France ; on hm
return, he was in great fitvour with his sovereign ; in 1009,
he was 4veftted a baron by the title of lord Coivilie, oi Culross,

the title, according to the patent of creation, devolved on his
cousin, John, eldest son of Alexander Colville, commendator
of Culross, above named, brother of the 1st lord ; but neither
this John, his son, grandson, or great-grandson, ever ansumed
the title, whidi consequently does not appear upon the union
n»lL In 1722, however, John Colville, 6th in descent from
Alexander, claimed the barony, and was declared, by a reso-
lution of the house of lords, 27 May, 1723, to have made good
liis claim, and his name directed to be added to the roll of
peers, according to the date of the patent of 1609. His line

WILLIAM. JOHN NAPIER, Lord NAPIER, of Mer-
chistoun, CKnd a Baronet of Nova Scotia ; Capt. R.N. 6. 13
Oct., 1786 ; succeeded his father, Francis, late lord, 1 Aug.,
1823; m., 28 March,. 1816, Elizabeth^ da. of the Hon. Andrew
Cochrane- Johnstone, and has issue a son and a daughter.
The origin of the family of Napier, is stated in a certificate
under the hand and seal of sir Archibald Napier, of Merchistoun,
dated 1 June, 1625, in the following words : — ^^ One of the
ancient earles of Lenox, in Scotland, had issue three sonnes ;
the eldest succeeded him in the earledom of Lenox ; the
second, whose name was Donald, and the third was named
Gillchrist ; the then king of Scotts having warres, &c.,
amongst some that were then commanded to serve the king
in those warres, was the earle of Lenox, who keeping his
eldest Sonne at home, sent his second sonne to serve for
him ; this battell went hard with the Scotts, who were forced
to loose grounde, and at last to runne away, which being
perceived by Donald, he pulled his father's standard from
the bearer thereof, and valiantly encountering the /oe, being
well followed, repulsed the enemy, and changed the fortune
of the day, whereby a greate victory was gott. After the
battaile, the king said unto them : — Vov have all done va-
liantly^ but there is one amongst you who hath na pier, — and
calling Donald to his presence, in regarde of his worthy ser-
vice, gave him in augmentacion of honor to change his name
from Lenox to Napier, and gave him the lands of Gosfoord,
&c., and made him his servant, which discourse is confirmed
by sundry of my old evidences, wherein we are called Lenox,
alias Napier."
John Napier, " to whom," says Mr. Hume, the celebrated
historian

M^ted him an extraordinary lord of session, 1626; and a
r^ulation having taken place, that the officers of state should
not sit as ordinary judges in that court, created him a baronet,
2d March, and then advanced him to the title of lord Napier ^
to him and his heirs male, 4 May, 1627. He was a steady
loyalist, and invariably attached to the interests of his sove-
reign, which rendered him very obnoxious to the Covenanters,
who threatened to forfeit him after his death, which happened
in 1645 : their forfeiture was prevented by his family paying
a considerable fine. He m. Margaret Graham, da. of John,

a companion of William the Conqueror, to have been its ori*
ginal ancestor ; others derive it from a younger son of the
house of Clare, earls of Gloucester and Hertford ; and others,
again, assert that a Walter Fitz-Gilbert, son of Gilbert
Becket, a wealthy citizen of London, and brother of Thomas
h Becket, archbif^op of Canterbury, was its founder. It is
certain, however, that the family name was derived from the
office of chief butler of Ireland ; we commence our account,
therefore, with
Theobald le BotxcIsb, on whom that office was con-
ferred by king Henry lT.y anno 1177) ^^^ he and his succes-
sors were bound to attend the kings of England at their coro-
nation, and that day present them with the first cup of wine,
for which they were to have certain pieces of the king's plate.
Some time after, that king granted him the prisage and but-
lerage of wines, to enable him and his heirs the better to sup-
port the dignity of their office.*
From this Theobald the office descended, through four
generations, all of the same Christian name, to Theobald,
5th butler, who dying unm^ 1290, was succeeded by his
brother,
Edmokd d^ BotELCR, who sat in parlioibent a« a baron,
1302, and-in 1315 was created earl of Carrickw He d, 1321,
leaving^ besides other issue, 2 sons ; 1. James, his successor ;
and^ 2. John, ancestor of the present earl of Carrick (see
that Title).
James, 2d earl of Carrick, was created, 2 Nov., 1328,
earl of Ormond ; m. Eleanol', da. of Humphry de Bohun, earl
<^ Hereford and Essex, and constable of England, (by the
princess Elizabeth, da. of king Edward L,) and dying 1337,
waQ succeeded by his son,
James, 2d earl of Ormond, and 3d earl of Carrick; d.
1383, leavmg a son, James, 3d earl of Ormond, who d. 1405,
leaving 2 sons ; 1. James, 4th earl of Ormond ; and, 2. sir
Richard^ ancestor of the present earl.
James, 4th earl oi Ormond, d, 1452, leaving 3 sons ; 1.
James, 5th earl, who was created earl of Wiltshire, 1440,
taken prisoner at the battle of Towton, 1461, and beheaded,
. * Under a decree of 12 Feb., 1584, the earl claimed to be entitled to the
prisage and butlerage of all wines brought into aby of the ports, havensj &c.
in Ireland ; but this claim having been foimd troublesome and vexations td
trade, an act passed, 20 June, 1810, for the purchase of this right, and the
sum of two hundred and sbcteoi thousand pounds was accordi^ly granted
for the surrender of this claim, and revesting it in the crown for the public
service ; and, 31 May, 1811, an act received the royal assent for abolishing
the duties of the yriaage and butlerage of wines in Ireland.

Ronenberg, in the Netherlands ; bom 21 Nov., 1820, succeeded
his father, Reinhardt-Diederick-Jaoob, late Earl, 31 Oct., 1823.
The 1st earl of Athlone was Godart de Ginkell, baron de
Reede, lieut-gen. of the forces in Ireland under William III.,
who evinced signal courage and skill in the reduction of that
kingdom to his Majesty^s obedience. He besieged and took
Athlone, 30 June, 1691, of which the celebrated colonel
Richard Grace was governor, and had successfully defended
against the assault and blockade of the whole army of general
Douglas the preceding year. On the 12th of July he also
gained the decisive battle of Aghrim, over general St. Ruth.
For these brilliant services he was most deservedly rewarded
with the earldom of Athlone and barony of Aghrim. He like-
wise received the thanks of the British house of commons; and,
in 1693, had the grant of the forfeited estates of William Don-
gan, earl of Limerick, amounting to 26,480 acres, confirmed in
1695 ; and, 1692, was created earl of Athlone, and baron of
Aghrim. The grant of the lands being reversed by parlia-

mitt Dooovan, Hut after an investigation wbieh lasted near
4 years, the question was decided in favour of the earPs soil,
Arthur, who, on coming of age in 1765) took his seat in
the Irish house of peers as viscount Valentia, and immediately
petitioned for his writ to the English parliament as earl <Mf
Anglesey. Here, however, the judgement was different, the
En^sh house of lords deciding against the petitioner. His
oause was again argued before the Irish house of lords, who
affirmed the contested marriage, and his lordship continued to
sit as viscount Valentia, in Ireland. Some details of this case,
one of the most curious in the history of the peomge, are
given in the note. * His lordship was created, 20 Dec., 1793,
* His lordship having been sspvratsd from his lady sereBsl ymn before
her death, and at the tume of her death meeting an express in Wales, on his
way to Ireland, giving him an account of that event, immediately I^
Wales, and returned to Ireland, accompanied by the rev. L. Neil, his lord-
ship's chaplain, and on the 15th Sept., 1741, he was m. to Juliami Dooovan,
by the said L. Neil, at hi« lordship's pindpal seat, at Camolin Park, oo.
Wexford ; she was then about the i^ of 17, extremdy beautiful, and Mshly
accompUshedf and a lady of an ancient and respectaote fismily, and haa re-
sided with her mother in the town of Camolui, near his lordship's teat.
Her motJiePs maiden name was Nixon, a very respectable ^Eimily, who
possessed consideralde estates in tha^county. In 17q8, after the oieatfa of
earl Richard, Mr. Jdbn Annesley, of Ballisack, preaentsd a petition to the
then lord-lieut of Ireland, claiming the titles of viscount Valentia, and
baron Mountnorris, as next in succession to those honours, In case Richard,
the late earl of Anglesey, had died without issue male, lawfully b^otten.
The said Arthur, the only son of the aforesaid Richard, earl of Anglesey,
and viscount Valentia, presented a counter petition by his mother and guar-
dian, Juliana, countess of Anglesey. The matter was referred to the at-
torney and solicitor-gen. of Ireland, who heard counsel, and received evi-
dence on both sides. After the fullest investigation, on examination of
evidence, (which lasted near 4 years,) they reported, 21 Sept., 17G5, that the
marriage of Richard, earl of Anglesey, with Juliana Donovan was duly
solemnized, and that the titles of viscount Valentia, baron Mcuntnorris,
and baron Altham, were legally vested in the said Arthur, the only son of
the aforesaid Richard, earl of Anglesey, and viscount Valentia.
In 1765, the said Arthur, having attained his age of 21 yearp, was calletl
to parliament in Ireland by a writ of summons, and took his scat in the
house of peers as Aiscount Valentia, baron Mountnorris, and baron Altham.
In the same year, 1766, lord Valentia, towards the end of the session of par-
liament, petitioned his majesty for his writ of siunmons to the parliament
of Great Britain, as earl of Anglesey and baron Annesley, of Newport Pag-
nell. This petition was referred by his majesty' to the then attorney -gen. of
England, sir William de Grey, who reported, in the strongest terras, in
favour of issuing the writ. Sir William was afterwards directed to re-con-
sider his former report, and to give his opinion upon such new evidence as
should be laid before him. After considering the whole of the evidence that
was laid before hun on all sides, sir William dc Grey made a 2d report, re-

fe reported that Arthur, then lord Valentia, was the legitimate

fkvour. He
the evidence, and deciding u|)on every point in lord Valentia's
son of the late earl of Anglesey, and, as such, entitled to the honours of the
carl of Anglesey and baron Aimesley, of Newport Pagnell. Not withstanding
these several proceedings and reports, his majestv was pleased to refer the
matter to the house of lords of Great Britain. The question m this case
was. Whether lord Valentia was the legitimate son or the late earl of An-
glcst'y ?

servable, was in the country wtere the facts allied by lord Valentia may bo
supposed to be best known, and were liable to the strictest scrutiny, where
tliey cottM te easily investigated, and where the characters of the several
witutauM were thoroughly known. IxMd AnnaW, the then chief iustice of
tte klng'a bench in Ireland, spoke and argued very strongly in fkvour of
Loid Valctltia*fe claim, and ^'oted for it The consequence was, ttet lord
Valentia being acknowledged and declared by the house of peers in Ireland
tote the iGgitlraate son of his father, Richard, the late earl of Anglesey,
and viscount Valentia, was ever after duly summoned to parliament m
that kingdom, and attended his duty there, and ei^oycd all the estates
In GrcatBritaln and Ireland of which his said father, Richard, tte late carl

Lara Fitipbbon, of Sidbury, oo. Devon, in the Peerage of iho
United Kingdom : bom 2 June, 1792 ; succeeded his father,
John, tiie late Earl, 28 Jan., 1802.
The ftmily of FitMffihbon^ the diief of which was styled
the White Knight, otherwise ClangUfbon^ is descended
from tiie Fitageruds, barons Offaley, progenitors of the great
hamei ef KUdaro and Desmond; from the same origin
are descended the Ejughts of G/ifi, and the Valley, and the
KnjiKhta of JT^rry, otherwise the BUu^ Knights. These
titles were conferred by the earl of Desmond, as a count
Filatfaie, <m junior branches of the house of Fitzgerald ; in
the Bke manner as Hugh Lupus, the earl of Chester, created
his infoior barons.
The elder branch of the Fitzgibbons terminated in an
heiresB, who carried the estate to the Kingston family, as thus
described by 8mith, in his History of Cork, voL i. p. 45 ; viz.
^ The White Knight, otherwise styled Clan'(xibbony was
descended from (Hslebert, or Gilbert, called by the Irish
Oibbon, the eldest son, by a 2d wife, of John Fitz-Gerald,
ancestor of the houses of Kildare and Desmond : they had
laige possessions in this territory, a part of which is now the
estate of the right hon. the lord baron of Kingston, whose
grandfather, sir John King, was, 4 Sept., 1660, so created by
king Gharies IL The Ist lord m. Catharine, daughter of sir
WnSiam Fenton, knt., and dame Mar^ret Fitz-Oibbon, his
wife, sole heiress to the family of the White Knights.*'
Thomas Fitzgibbok, of Ballylander, co. Kerry, esq.,
anoestor of the earls of Clare, representative of the collateral
m^ line of the White Knights, assigned his estate to lord
Kingston, for its better protection from the forfeitures then
dire^ed against the families of Roman catholics ; but his
leidship and Mr. Fitzgibbon shortly after deceased, leaving
infsnt families ; and as no legal re-assignment of the estate
perfiscted, it was never recovered. His son, John Fitz.

WINDHAM-HENRY WINDHAM42UJN, Earl of
BninKren, Visoount Mounteurl, Baron Adiure, co. Limeridc,
mA a Baronet of Great Britain, horn 24 Sept., 1782, suc-
eeeded his father, Valentine-Richard, Ist Earl, 24 Aug., 1824 ;
took the name of Wyndham^ in addition to, and before that

AmD-WTNDHAM, Viscoutit Mounteorl, b, 19 May, 1812 ; and,
2. AtmO'Maria, b. Nov. 1814.
The family of Qutn, according to the andent Irish gene-
alogista, derive their surname from Con Cead Caha, or Con
of the hundred battles, monarch of Ireland, in the 2d cen-
tury ; his grandson, Cormac, was the first who bore the name
of QttWi, I. e. the descendant of Con ; he is said to have been
monarch of Ireland, in 254. At the first arrival of the Eng-
liah, temp. Henry II., the family of Quin certainly possessed
large territories, over which they governed as hereditary
diieftains ; many places still retain their name, as Inchiquin,
Tyquin, &c, though now conveyed to other proprietors.
Camden mentions 0*Quin, of Dunderlus, among the Ulster
chieftains, temp, queen Elizabeth ; he m. the sister of the
famous 0*NeiL
994 IRISH PEERAGE.
The immediate descent of the earl is from the anden^
bnmuch of Inchiquin, co. Clare, where his aiiioestors possessed
Corofin, Inchiquin, and Glanquin, with the castles of Inchi-
quin, Stomehouse, and Balleyportrey, and a|M>ear to have had
great feudal power for many centuries. The family docu-
ments detail a number of marriages with considerable fiamiliea
during this period, and describe their feuds and final ezpulaioa
from Clare by the more powerfid sept of the O'Briens, an4
bring the pedigree down to
John Quik, bishop of Limerick, 1621, which see he re-
signed 1551, in consequence of his infirmities ; his brother,
James Quiv, of KilmaUock, oo. J^imerick, (in which county
their ancestor settled, on being deprived of his ancient
patrimony in Clare,) was faUier of Donouoh Quiv, who

The family of Upian was seated at Upton, oo. Cornwall,
as early as the Conquest.
Henry Uptok, 2d son of Arthur Upton, of Luckton, oo.
Devon, went over to Ireland a capt. in the army, under the
earl of Essex, 1698, and settled at Castle Upton, co. Tippe-
rary. The several heads of the Upton family in Ireland have
served near 140 years in parliament, without intermission.
They were leaders of the dissenting interest ; had a very ez^
tensive influence in the north of Ireland ; and being firmly
attached to the illustrious house of Hanover, as the strenuous
supporters of the civil and religious liberties of the nation,
they constantly exerted themselves in those northern counties
witn the greatest zeal, activity, and spirit, in that cause.
Arthur Upton, son and heir of Henry above named,
left, besides other issue, two sons; 1. Clotworthjf, whose only
da. and heir was created, 1766, viscountess Langford (see
Baron Langford) ; and,
2. John Upton, b. 1671, a colonel in king William's
army, was engaged as lieutonant-colonel of dragoons at the
memorable battle of AJmanza, in Spain, under lord Gral-
way, who, for his spirited conduct on that day, gave him

LoDOE-EvANS DE MoNTMORENCY, Ist visoount Frank-
fort de Montmorency, was returned to parliament 1768, and
was 8 most zealous supporter of the rights and freedom of his
ooontrj^; he assisted during the greatest part (tf five parlia-
ments in all the measures then carried on for the establishing
a free trade, and liberation of the constitution of Ireland ; he
oontinued in parliament till he was called to the peerage in
1800; tometunes in office, and frequently sacrifiosd to the
politics of the day, he concurred in the legislative union of
Oreat Britain and Ireland, upon the principle of its being the
only measure likely to give quiet and repose to his country,
long torn by civil and religious dissensions, by frequent in-
surrections, and at length by actual rebellion ; whi<^ dissen-
sioiu were fomented and encouraged by ambitious and disap-
pointed men, who found, too late, that the/ were unable to
preaerve their country from a baneful and horrible rebellion;
and who, though certainly not intentionally accessory to the
same, laid the foundation by their conduct for a legislative
nnion, whidi at length became necessary for the purpose of
oonaolidating the strength of the empire, and estabUshingand
■ecnring the like constitution in church and state that Eng-
land ei^oyed; amongst other offices, he was appointed re-
erirer-general of the post-office, and master of the permit-
ofBee, which offices he resigned 1789; in 1708, on the ap-
pointment of earl Fitzwilliam to the government of Ireland,
he was nominated his second secretary ; on the recall of the
earl, he resigned his office, and went out of parliament ; 1707)
he came into parliament, and was appointed a lord of the
treasury and of the privy coimcil ; but it is not in this ele-
vated sphere of b'fe that the real value of hian consists ; he
was a useAil member of society in all the diiferent branches of
public economy ; high sheriff of his own county of Kilkenny,
vice-president of the society for the encouragement of arts,
manufiictnres, and commerce in Ireland ; a trustee of the
linen and hempen manufacture ; a commissioner for the im-
nrovements of the port and harbour of Dublin, and the
nridgea, quays, and docks thereof; president of the harmonic
society, and foremost in every plan which had for its object
social pleasures, or public utility ; in 1800 he was called to
tha house of peers, by the title of baron Frankfort, of Gal-
moye; and, 1815, his lordship was raised to the dignity of
a viscount, by the title of viscount Frarikfort de Montmorency.
With the strictest justice may be said of this noble family,
o o 2 that

that their ancient alliances in France, England, and Ireland,
are of a superior kind ; nor have the descendant of those
illustrious progenitors degenerated in any respect; for, in
I773, no less than five members of t]bis distinguished family
were, all at one time, seated in the parliament of Ireland, viz.
lord Mountmorres, sir William Evans, and sir Heydock, for
the dty of Kilkenny, Reymond for the city of Dublin, and
Lodge-Evans, the present viscount, for the borough of Ban-
don. In 1816, after a laborious investigation, as appears
from the most unquestionable evidence, the royal Hoence was
obtained for the re-assumption of the ancient surname of de
Monimorenep orUy^ which had been delayed until then, occa-
sioned by the present branch of the family having but re-
cently iiUierited the title of baronet, which had succeeded to
the ancient title of de Montemarisco, The late succession to
the ancient family estate contributed materially to dear up
many difficulties ; to which causes of delay may be added the
time, labour, an^ expense, attendant upon an extensive and
minute research through the records and chronicles of Eng-
land, Ireland, and France. The viscount' m., 1st, 1 Jan.,

Teign of king Stephen, was a principal commander at the
battle of Northampton, against Uie Scots ; m. Avida, da. and
co-heiress of William de Meschines, earl of Cambridge, and
ly her had William, his successor, who was one of the wit-
nesses to king Henry II.*s charter of the lands and privileges
granted to the abbey church of St. Peter, Westminster ; from
whom descended Miles, 1st baron qf Kingsale, who was
kept out of his earldom of Ulster by Huge de Lade, to whom
king John had granted it, upon his father's apprehension^
and sending him a prisoner to London ; and upon his claim-
ing the earldom, as heir to his father, Lacle replied, that he
would maintain the charter of king John to himself, since
earl John never returned to Ireland to reverse his outlawry.
Lade being a great favourite of the king, and very powerful
in Lreland, Miles was compelled to quit his pretensions ; but,
to make him some requital, king Henry III. conferred upon
him the barony of Kingsale, from him descended,
Almericus, 23d lord, who was outlawed in 1691 ; but it
was soon after reversed, and, 25 Oct., 1692, he took his seat
Sn the house of peers. Being very handsome in his person,
and of a tall stature, his lordship one day attended king Wil-
liam's court, and being admitted into the presence-chamber^
asserted the privilege of being covered before his majesty, by
walking to and fro with his hat on his head. The king ob-
serving him, sent one of his attendants to inquire the reason
of his appearing before him with his head covered ; to whom
he replied, he very well knew in whose presence he stood, and
the reason why he wore his hat that day was, because he stood
before the king of England. This answer being told the king,
and his lordship approaching nearer the throne, was requir^
by his majesty to explain himself, which he did to this effect :
*^ May it please your majesty, my name is Courcy, and I am
lord of Kingsale, in your kingdom of Ireland ; the reason of
my appearing covered in your majesty's presence is, to assert
the undent privil^e of my family, granted to sir John de
CourcUy earl qf UUter^ and his heirs, by John, king of Eng-
land, loir him and his successors for ever." The king replied,
he remembered he had such a nobleman, and believed the pri-
yflege he asserted to be his right, and giving him his hand to
kiss.

THOMAS-JOHN WYNN, Babok NEWBOROUGH,
and a baronet of England, bom 8 April, 1802 ; suoceeded his
father, Thomas, the late Lord, 12 Oct., 1807.
- This ancient family derives its descent from three of the ce-
lebrated chiefs, who were heads of the fifteen tribes of North
Walea. By the male line, from the Wynns of Bodvean, in
Ueyn« who were descended from CoUwyn ap Tangiu)^ lord of
Ardudwy and Eifionydd, who flourish^ about the banning
of the 10th century, and resided at Harlech Castle, then called
Brownwer*s Towgr. By the female line, from the Glynnt
<tf Olyn-Llifbn, descended from Cilmin Droed Ddu, nephew
to Mervin Frych, king of Man, and whose. residence was on
the aite of the principal seat of the present branch g( the
Sillily. Also from the Wpnns of Melai, and the Abbey, de-
•oended from Marehudd ap Cynan^ lord of Uwch Dulas and
Abei^gele, who lived in the time of Rodri Mawr, king of the
Britona, about the year 846, and resided at Llyss Bryn Ffanigle.
The right of primogeniture not prevaiHng in the early
periods of Welsh history, but, on the contrary, it being com-
Imlsory by the laws that the property of the father should be
equally divided amongst his male issue, it is extremely difficult
to trace the exact succession of families at so distant a date.
Amongst the most illustrious descendants of CoUwyn was sir
Ifpuj^l^ who performed gri*eat feats of valour at Poictiers
with the Black Prince, from whom he obtained the surname
of Fwyall, or the battle-axe, and subsequently received ex-
traordinary marks of royal favour. The descendants of CiU
Mtit, also, were always famed for their valour and wisdom,
and form a considerable figure in the annals of the princi-
pality.
John Wynn ap Hugh, standard-bearer at the battle of
Norwich, A.D. 1549, in the reignof Edward VI., was rewarded
for his services with the island of Bardsey, still in the pos-
session of the family. He m. Elizabeth, da. of sir John
Puleston, and was sheriff of Caernarvonshire, in the years
1551 and 15G0, by whom he had isttue ; 1. IIugh-Gwyan*

Flanden, 1328, is Frederick de Thelusson, seigneur de
Fl^sdi^res, also described as baron St. Saphorin, from an
ettate he possessed adjoining to Fl^schlres, near Lyons. This
FrederidL held a high command in the army, and distin-
guished himself at the si^ge of Cassel : his descendants con-
tinned in possession of these estates until Sunday, 22 Aug.,
1672, when they fell victims at themassacre of St. Bartholomew.
The only survivor d diat dreadful slaughter was Theophi-
Lus DE Thelussok, who having m. a sister of the count
de Saluce, then governor of Lyons, was concealed by him,
and secretly conveyed into Savoy, from whence, seeing no
lurobabiHty of having his estate restored, he retired to Geneva,
where his descendants have since fUied the first offices in the
magistracy of that republic Theophtlus de Thelussok
was ancestor of his lordship*s great-grandfather,

ing thirty ounces, troy weight, and contains twenty-six
garters, enamelled proper, in each a rose gules, and as many
knots, enamelled white, to which is pendant the george, as
above. Charles II. ordained that the Knights shoiDd always,

diwks, the cross of St. George, surrounded with the garter,

Mafic nature, as coronations, royal marriages, and the cre-
lon of their eldest sons princes of Wales, to create a number
