Earl of Huntingdon

Encyclopedia : E : EA : EAR : Earl of Huntingdon

Earl of Huntingdon is a title which has been created several times in the Peerage of England. The Earl possesses no subsidiary titles, but his eldest son uses the invented title Viscount Hastings to avoid confusion, there already being a Baron Hastings.
