Debrett's Peerage and Baronetage

Home --> Articles & Databases --> Debrett's Peerage and Baronetage

Description:	"With the 2000 edition, Debrett celebrates 230 years as the oldest existing peerage reference book. John Debrett first put his name to his Correct Peerage of England, Scotland and Ireland in 1802, but the history of this work can be traced back through a connected chain of publishers and printers to Dugdale's Baronage, the forerunner of all other 'peerages', published between 1675 and 1676. "Since the publication of the last edition in 1995, the deaths of 109 hereditary peers have been recorded, and the deaths of 78 life peers. The biographies of 210 new life peers have been included in the new edition. One hereditary peerage has gone into abeyance (Barony of Audley), but two have come out of abeyance (the Baronies of Arlington and Berners)."
