[edit] Titles?

So, the title of her life peerage was the same as that of her hereditary peerage? Would her full title have been "Irene Curzon, 2nd Baroness Ravensdale, Baroness Ravendale" or something? --Jfruh (talk) 16:50, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, although ordinals (the numbers ie. 2nd) aren't official, so she would've been The Rt. Hon. the Baroness Ravensdale and Ravensdale I think. Funnily enough Andrew Turek wrote an article entitle Ladies for life, or who sits where?, which gives a rather good reasoning for female life peers created before the 1963 Act being created hereditary peeresses by virtue of Coke's doctrine of barony by writ; but that's an aside! --Counter-revolutionary (talk) 19:29, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
