Baron Lovaine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title Baron Lovaine was created in the Peerage of Great Britain for the 1st Duke of Northumberland in 1784. The title was created with a special remainder to pass to his second son, Lord Algernon Percy, which it did so on the duke's death in 1786. The second baron was created Earl of Beverley four years later and on his death in 1830, both titles passed to his eldest son, George, who later inherited the dukedom of Northumberland from his cousin, the 4th Duke in 1865. All three titles have remained united since.
