Talk:George Neville, 1st Baron Latimer

Baron Latimer

After the death of John Neville, 4th Baron Latimer (d. 1577) the barony remained in abeyance until 15 July 1912 when by a resolution of the House of Lords, Francis Money-Coutts, was declared to be a co-heir of the Barony of Latymer/Latimer. His lordship was accordingly summoned to Parliament by writ, dated 11 February 1913 and succeeded to the title of 5th Baron Latymer on 11 February 1913. Francis was the only son of the Reverend James Drummond Money and his wife Clara Maria Burdett, fourth daughter of Sir Francis Burdett, 5th Baronet, and claimed the peerage as a descendant of Frances, eldest daughter of the Hon. Lucy Neville, third daughter of the fourth Baron Latymer. As of 2009, the title is held by the fifth Baron's great-great-grandson, the ninth Baron, who succeeded his father in 2003. Therefore how can the Willoughby family still claim the title? -- Lady Meg (talk) 05:59, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Also.. From what I gather here.. his title is the same title only a new creation of Baron Latimer as it states 'NEVILL -- BARONS LATIMER', not Latymer, made for Sir George Nevill (Neville), son of Ralph Neville, 1st Earl of Westmorland, by writ of summons dated 25 Febraury 1432 was summoned as Lord/Baron Latimer.

"Memorable also is this Richard Lord Latimer for the dispute he had with Robert, Lord Broke touching the Barony of Latimer to which as next heir in blood to John Lord Latimer of Danby who died sp the 9th Henry VI he claimed a right But to end the contention the Lord Broke was informed by an herald that Sir George Nevill grandfather to Richard was created Lord Latimer by a new title which therefore lineally descended to Richard by Henry son and heir of the said George and that the Lord Broke had made a wrong claim who should have claimed his style from William Latimer first created Lord Latimer of Danby the head manor of his barony temp Edward L on this the Lord Broke perceiving his error and having a title of his own was contented to conclude a match between their children and Richard suffered a recovery on certain manors and lordships demanded by the Lord Broke in with which adjustment both parties were well satisfied-- BANKS." - from Burke Peerage -- Lady Meg (talk) 04:55, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
