| (1) | Robert de Ros of Hamlake and Belvoir, '1st' Lord (d 17.05/16.06.1285) | ||||||||||||||
| BE1883 identifies Robert as the 1st Lord but TCP, whilst accepting that in 1806 the (House of) Lords accepted the decision in 1616 to allow precedence of the relevant writ, adds that such writs "are no longer regarded as valid for the creation of peerages" and numbers his son as the 1st Lord. Noting that there are a number of cross-references using 'the old system', we show both numberings. | |||||||||||||||
