Earl Cadogan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title of Earl Cadogan (pronounced [kəˈdʌgən]) has been created twice in the Peerage of Great Britain, first in 1718 and then in 1800. The first creation was in favour of the politician and military commander Sir William Cadogan, along with the subsidiary titles Viscount Caversham and Baron Cadogan of Oakley, of which the latter title had a special remainder to his younger brother Charles. Cadogan had already been created Baron Cadogan of Reading in 1716. On Lord Cadogan's death in 1726 all the titles became extinct, except the Barony of Cadogan of Oakley, which passed according to the special remainder to his brother Charles, who became the 2nd Baron Cadogan of Oakley. In 1800 his son, the third Baron, was created Viscount Chelsea and Earl Cadogan.
