Baron Kerry is an ancient title in the Peerage of Ireland. It was created in circa 1223 for Thomas Fitzmaurice. In 1537 the eleventh Baron was created Baron Odorney and Viscount Kilmaule in the Peerage of Ireland. However, these titles became extinct on his death in 1541 while he was succeeded in the Barony of Kerry by his younger brother. The twenty-first Baron was created Earl of Kerry in the Peerage of Ireland in 1723. His younger son John Petty was created Earl of Shelburne in the Peerage of Ireland in 1753 and his son, the second Earl of Shelburne, was created Marquess of Lansdowne in 1784. In 1818 the latter's son, the third Marquess, succeeded his cousin as 4th Earl of Kerry and 24th Baron Kerry.
