Albyric Drummond-Willoughby, 23rd Baron Willoughby de Eresby
Albyric Drummond-Willoughby, 3rd Baron Gwydyr, 23rd Baron Willoughby de Eresby (25 December 1821 – 26 August 1870) was a British noble baron. He was the son of Peter Robert Drummond Burrell, 22nd Baron Willoughby de Eresby (died 1865) and Sarah Clementina, née Drummond (died 1865). He never married.
On his father's death in 1865, he succeeded him as Baron Willoughby de Eresby, Baron Gwydyr, Baronet Burrell of Knipp and Joint (1/2) Hereditary Lord Great Chamberlain. On his death the Willoughby barony fell into abeyance between his both sisters; this abeyance was later terminated in favour of the elder one, Clementina Drummond-Willoughby, 24th Baroness Willoughby de Eresby.[1] The Joint Hereditary Lord Great Chamberlainship was split equally between the two sisters, so either of them held one quarter of it. The Gwydyr barony was inherited by a cousin.
