Talk:List of viscountcies in the peerages of Britain and Ireland

Putting in talk since Ireland's not done yet. john 02:06, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)

BTW, we don't have (m)any of the extinct viscountcies yet...this'll be a lot of work. john 02:08, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Sorry to be late, but I had a list of Viscountcies of England prepared earlier; I've just added it. I followed the format of the Earldom, hence making it more complex than the first version.

Emsworth, why did you remove Beauchamp? john 02:15, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Did I? It seems so; it probably got lost in the cut-and-paste. Will be reinstated. -- Emsworth 02:17, Mar 30, 2004 (UTC)

I'll probably have the list of Scottish Viscounts prepared tomorrow evening (just warning others, so that the work is not done twice). -- Emsworth 02:21, Mar 30, 2004 (UTC)

|Viscount Berehaven||1816||White||extinct 1891||in the Peerage of Ireland, subsidiary title of the Earl of Bantry

Needs to go in "Viscountcies in Peerage of Ireland after 1801" section (it'll be too complicated to try to combine UK and Ireland after 1801 as is done with the higher and less numerous grades).

Donald 04:11 BST: That is too sickening. I spend hours editing in all the UK viscountcies, and when I've finally finished it tells me that someone has already done it. Huzzah.

Sorry. :( Proteus (Talk) 08:24, 3 May 2004 (UTC)Reply

For the sake of consitency, the exact dates should not be put in; the years would be enough. -- Emsworth 20:48, Jun 17, 2004 (UTC)

What about the Viscountcy Kingston that was forfeit in 1715 (only had one viscount till then, Alexander Seton)? When was it created and in which peerage (England, Scotland, Ireland or GB)?

There's a Viscount Kingston created in the Peerage of Scotland in 1651, for Alexander Seton, 1st Viscount Kingston. The third viscount was attainted in 1715 and the peerage forfeited (see [1]). Mackensen (talk) 21:48, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Thank you. I have found one more Viscountcy not listed here, but on the webpages where you have linked to, the Viscountcy Fairfax of Emley in the Peerage of Ireland, here the data:

Date	Rank	Order	Name	Born	Died	Age

23 Dec 1636		2	Thomas Fairfax	c 1604	24 Sep 1641
24 Sep 1641		3	William Fairfax	6 Jun 1620	1648	28

25 Feb 1651		5	Charles Fairfax		6 Jul 1711

18 Nov 1738 to 20 Jan 1772		9	Charles Gregory Fairfax, Peerage extinct on his death		20 Jan 1772

Is this correct? Or are there mistakes? The source is this site: [2]. --VM 14:47, 23 October 2005 (UTC)Reply
