Earl De La Warr
From Academic Kids
Earl De La Warr (pronounced "Dellaware") is a title created in the Peerage of Great Britain in 1761 .
The Earl holds the subsidiary titles of Viscount Cantelupe (1761 ) in the Peerage of Great Britain, Baron De La Warr (1572 ) in the Peerage of England , and Baron Buckhurst 1864 ) in the Peerage of the United Kingdom . The barony De La Warr is of the second creation; however, it bears the precedence of the first creation, 1299, and has done so since shortly after the death of William West, 1st Baron De La Warr . Accordingly, some historical documents ignore the second creation and continue the numbering. In particular, Thomas West, 3rd Baron De La Warr is often referred to as 12th Baron De La Warr .
In the United States , this Thomas West is known simply as Lord Delaware . He served as governor of the Jamestown Colony , and the Delaware Bay was named after him. The state of Delaware , Delaware River and Delaware Indians were so called after the bay, and thus ultimately derive their names from the barony.
The family seat is Buckhurst Park in Sussex .
