Earl of Effingham

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The title Earl of Effingham has been created twice in British history, both times for holders of the Barony of Howard of Effingham. It was created first in 1731 in the Peerage of Great Britain, becoming extinct in 1816. It was created again in 1837 for the last Earl's cousin, who had succeeded him as Lord Howard of Effingham.

The Earl holds the subsidiary title of Baron Howard of Effingham (1554) in the Peerage of England.
