Baron Silchester

Baron Strabolgi (pronounced "Strabogie") is a title in the Peerage of England. It was called out of abeyance in 1916; whether it ever existed before then is open to serious dispute. Complete Peerage declines to list it, on the grounds that it did not exist before the twentieth century; their coverage ends with the death of Queen Victoria in January 1901.The eighteenth-century gentlewoman Mrs. Mary Dixie was heiress to the traitor George Brooke (who was attainted and executed for his part in the Bye Plot against James I) and his wife Elizabeth, eldest sister of the last Baron Burgh; Brooke had been brother and heir to the last Baron Cobham of Kent, who had been attainted for his part in the Main Plot. She was thus heir to the Barony of Cobham (if the forfeiture were reversed), co-heiress to the Barony of Burgh, to the Barony of Braye, and could claim to be co-heiress to several more doubtful titles, such as the Barony of Cobham of Sterborough.She had six daughters, three of whom had families. Their eldest sons were coheirs to all of Mrs. Dixie's noble claims; in 1909, the senior great-grandsons of her daughters petitioned to each have one title drawn out of abeyance for himself: the heir of the eldest daughter petitioned for the Barony of Burgh, the heir of the fourth daughter for the Barony of Cobham, and the heir of the youngest daughter for the Barony of Strabolgi.

Baron St John of Bletso, in the County of Bedford, is a title in the Peerage of England. It was created in 1582 for Oliver St John.For a period, the title Baron St John was subsumed within the title Earl of Bolingbroke which was granted to the fourth Baron. The Earldom died out with the third Earl, but the Barony continued via another branch which had since become the baronet line. The eldest son of the 1st Earl was advanced to the barony by Writ of acceleration under King Charles I to become the 5th Baron. However he died in the civil war without becoming Earl, This resulted in the existence of an additional baron in the sequence but this was not taken into account by the family when the barony was continued.Hence there is a discrepancy between the complete numbered series used by Burke and Debrett, and the numbering series in use by the family, particularly in the 18th and 19th century. Hence the numbers on family graves of this time are one less than the numbers used in the principal peerage registers that form the basis for this article.

In the 26th of the same reign, he gave a thousand marks to the king for livery of his wife's inheritance in Normandy; and that he might be restored to the king's favour, and do his homage. He m. Mabel, daughter of Reginald de Aurevalle, and grandchild and heir of Roger de St. John; and his posterity ever afterwards bore the surname of ST. JOHN.

JOHN, assuming that surname, wrote himself Willielmus de Sancto Johanne filius et haeres Adae de Port, and in the 15th John, gave five hundred marks to the king for livery of all the lands of Adam de Port, his father. The two following years he executed the sheriff'ss office for the county of Southampton : but was subsequently in arms with the other barons against the crown, and did not return to his allegiance until some time after the accession of HENRY III.

Baron Sinha, of Raipur in the Presidency of Bengal, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1919 for Sir Satyendra Prasanno Sinha, who was the first (and only) Indian ever to be elevated to the hereditary peerage. There was controversy over the succession on his death in 1928. He ought to have been succeeded in his title by his first son, Aroon Kumar Sinha. However, Aroon Sinha had been born at a time when there was no system of registration of births and marriages in India, so he was unable to prove his claim to the title to the satisfaction of the House of Lords at that time.In 1936, Aroon Sinha presented petition for a writ of summons to the House of Lords. The petition was referred to the Committee for Privileges on 27 June 1938, and a Commission was appointed to take evidence in Calcutta, on this birth and marriage. Ultimately, on 25 July 1939, the Committee for Privileges decided that Lord Sinha had succeeded in his claim. The decision remarks that the decision was not precedent for a peer who had legally married two wives (at the same time), and that there is no British law on heirship in the case of a polygamous marriage; but in this case that difficulty did not arise - and in fact the first Lord Sinha had belonged to the Sadharan Brahmo Samaj, a variety of Hinduism which required monogamy.More controversy followed in the early 1950s, when the second Lord Sinha was refused a British passport: eventually, in 1955, he was issued with a passport which described him as a British subject. At his death, the title passed to his elder son, the third baron, but he did not lay a formal claim to the title. He was succeeded by his son, the fourth baron, a Calcutta tea broker who likewise did not claim the title. The fourth baron died young and without issue in 1992. He was succeeded in the barony by his uncle, a retired sales manager and the younger son of the second baron. Prior to the death of the fourth baron, however, it was thought that his uncle, the heir presumptive, had predeceased his nephew, possibly without heirs. Desiring to keep his new status a secret, the new Lord Sinha did not register his claim with the British authorities. In 1996, the fourth baron's sister notified the British press that her uncle was still alive and resident in England. He was duly recognised as the fifth Baron Sinha, but continued to refuse his claim to the peerage. On the death of the fifth baron in 1999, he was succeeded by his elder son, the present sixth baron, who did not claim his seat in the House of Lords before most hereditary peers lost their right to sit in parliament as a result of the House of Lords Act 1999. The sixth baron continues to claim the title as of 2015.The current holder of the title, Arup Kumar Sinha, is British citizen and was brought up in Britain. As of 2005, he was working as a travel agent. He does not appear on the Roll of the Peerage; as a result, he may not use the title in an official capacity until he registers with the College of Arms and provides the necessary documentation to be listed on the roll.

The Barony of Preston and Prestonpans is a Scottish feudal barony in East Lothian. Once a title attached to land ownership, Scottish feudal baronies are deemed properties in their own right and can now be transferred independent of the land. For most of its history it was referred to as the Barony of Preston and Prestonpans, but as of 1663 the names were unified into one free barony, the Barony of Preston.The name ‘Preston’ signifies the town or settlement of priests, which results from monks from Newbattle and Holyrood settling in the district in 1184 AD. An early industry was saltpanning, centered in the adjacent Prestonpans.
