Baron Carteret

Baron Carteret

The title of Baron Carteret, of Hawnes in the County of Bedford, was first created in the Peerage of England 1681. It was originally proposed for Sir George Carteret, Bt., a celebrated royalist statesman, but he died before he was granted the title and as his eldest son, Philip, predeceased him, it was eventually bestowed on his namesake grandson, George, with remainder to the latter's brothers. Upon George's death in 1695, his eldest son, John inherited the title and he also inherited his mother's title as Earl Granville, upon her death in 1744. The title then passed to John's eldest son, Robert, in 1763. Upon Robert's death in 1776, his titles became extinct.

However, he bequeathed his lands to his sister's child, Henry Thynne. Henry then changed his surname to Carteret and was later created Baron Carteret, of Hawnes in the County of Bedford, in 1784, with a special remainder to the younger sons of his brother, the 2nd Viscount Weymouth (later 1st Marquess of Bath). He was succeeded according to the special remainder by his nephew, the second Baron. He was childless and was succeeded by his younger brother, the third Baron. He also had no children and the title became extinct on his death in 1849.
