Female-line succession of the peerage

Latest comment: 8 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Factual? "As his mother predeceased him, he inherited the barony of Wentworth from his grandmother." During the 1800s and up until the present day, English titles were interred on the male heir. Therefore, the mother would never have inherited the title. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Simile (talk • contribs) 01:59, 18 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

The peerage is a barony by writ, which can pass through the female line. Alekksandr (talk) 21:18, 26 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
