This page will never cover all of the titles and estates in the database. To keep the number of entries to a manageable level, we normally exclude families whose titles or estates are the same as their family names (or vice versa). The following will normally exclude titles created since 1800 and may not cover all persons who held the relevant title, particularly if it was in a family for only a generation or two. Remember that, if you cannot find a well-known title under one category, it may have been included under another - for example if the family continued to use the same place-name after being promoted (eg Baron of XX becoming Earl of XX). Don't forget that most browsers have a Find facility (normally Ctrl+F) that will enable you to search this page for a particular word or phrase.
