Baron Barnard
|
The title Baron Barnard, of Barnard Castle in the Bishoprick of Durham, was created in 1698 in the Peerage of England. It was granted to Sir Christopher Vane, who had previously served as a Member of Parliament. The third Baron was created Viscount Barnard and Earl of Darlington. The third Earl was then made Duke of Cleveland. In 1891, however, at the death of the fourth duke, all of the higher titles became extinct, and only the barony remained, passing to Christopher William Vane.
