Longest lived peers and peeresses |

|
The British peerage is possibly the best
documented group of lives in history. It is somewhat |
|
|
surprising therefore that it was not until 1965
that a member of the peerage achieved their 100th |
|
birthday. Since that time, a further 14 peers and
1 peeress in her own right have reached their |
|
centenaries, as shown below:- |

The following is a progressive listing of the
oldest peers since 1840. I am very grateful to Louis |
|
Epstein, who first suggested that such a listing
be compiled. Louis provided me with his research |
|
on this matter, to which I have made only minor
amendments. As a result, the vast majority of |
|
credit for this listing is due to Louis. |

I
understand that the longest-lived person who has ever appeared in
"Burke's Peerage" was |
|
|
Katherine Plunket, daughter of the 2nd Baron
Plunket. She was born 22 November 1820 and died |
|
14 October 1932, aged 111 years and 327 days. Her
[edited] obituary in "The Times" of 15 October |
|
1932 reads:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The Hon. Katherine Plunket, who died yesterday
at her home, Ballymascanlan House, Co. Louth, |
|
would have reached the age of 112 if she had
lived till November 22. She remembered sitting on |
|
Sir Walter Scott's knee when she was five years
old. Her memory was indeed remarkable, and her |
|
mind was clear and vigorous to the last. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'There can be no question about this
extraordinary instance of longevity. Miss Plunket, who was |
|
born on November 22, 1820, was the eldest of the
five daughters born to the Rev. Thomas Span |
|
Plunket when he was curate of Kilsaran, Co.
Louth. His marriage in October, 1819, to Louisa Jane, |
|
daughter of Mr. William Foster, of Fanevalley,
Co. Louth, and the baptism of Katherine on December |
|
13, 1820, are both recorded in the parish
register of Kilsaran. Her father, who was the eldest son |
|
of the first Lord Plunket, the great orator and
Lord Chancellor of Ireland, was born in 1792, became |
|
Bishop of Tuam, Killala and Achonry in 1839,
succeeded his father as second baron in 1854, and |
|
died
in 1866. Miss Plunket's four sisters all died unmarried except one, the Hon.
Mary Elizabeth |
|
Alice,
who married Colonel Sir Thomas Oriel Forster, Bt., and died without issue in
1862. The |
|
|
youngest,
the Hon. Gertrude Victoria, died in 1924 at the age of 83 after her eldest
sister had |
|
passed her hundredth year. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Miss Plunket, who lived under five Sovereigns,
was enthusiastically loyal and followed sympathet- |
|
ically all the doings of the Royal Family. The
birth and babyhood of the Princesses Elizabeth and |
|
Margaret Rose of York, which occurred after she
was a hundred years old, interested her deeply. |
|
A correspondent wrote to us on February 4, 1929:-
" I recently sent a copy of one of my books |
|
to Miss Plunket, who is, I believe, the oldest of
his Majesty's subjects. Her cousin wrote to me in |
|
acknowledgment, 'it pleased the dear old lady
very much ...... She is past 108 now and is still |
|
very wonderful, and as a rule interested in
things, especially just now in the King's health. She has |
|
always been a very strong Loyalist and Unionist.'
" She was delighted at the receipt of a telegram |
|
from the King and Queen on November 22, 1930,
congratulating her upon her one hundred and |
|
tenth birthday. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Even
in extreme old age Miss Plunket continued to be a great traveller, and
Ballymascanlan, |
|
|
which she inherited from her uncle, Mr. Frederick
Foster, contains many of her sketches of scenes |
|
in Italy and Switzerland. He reminiscences of
travel in Ireland in her girlhood were quaint and clear. |
|
She remembered when long distances in Connaught
were usually traversed by canal boat or on |
|
horseback, and when the journey from Connaught to
Dublin by coach sometimes occupied between |
|
two and three days. One of her earliest
recollections was of the visit of Sir Walter Scott to Ireland |
|
in July, 1826. Sir Walter was the guest of her
grandfather, the first Lord Plunket, who was then |
|
Attorney-General [of Ireland]. She remembered
sitting on Sir Walter's knee and being charmed by |
|
his agreeable personality and conversation. Sir
Walter Scott, in his diary, alludes to this visit to the |
|
Irish Attorney-General, with whom he stayed for
several days between July 19 and 31, 1826. Miss |
|
Plunket
was then in her sixth year, and she recalled the incident in a conversation
105 years |
|
afterwards.' |

Peers who enjoyed their peerages for the shortest
length of time |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wilfred Carlyle Stamp, 2nd Baron Stamp, was
killed in a German air-raid on London on 16 April 1941. |
|
His father, the 1st Baron, was killed by the same
bomb. However, it was assumed that the son |
|
had died after the father, even by a
split-second, and on that basis the 2nd Baron was held to |
|
have succeeded to the title. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Apart
from this legal "fiction", the shortest period of enjoyment of a
title was that of Charles |
|
|
Brandon, 3rd Duke of Suffolk [creation of 1514]
who succeeded to the title on the death of his |
|
brother on 14 July 1551 and died half an hour
later, when the peerage became extinct. |

Shortest-lived peerages |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Frederic Leighton (the famous Victorian painter)
was created Baron Leighton of Stretton on 24 |
|
January 1896. He died the following day when the
peerage became extinct after a life of only 1 day. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sir
Thomas Erskine May, author of the standard work on British parliamentary
procedure, was |
|
created Baron Farnborough on 11 May 1886. This
title became extinct on his death on 17 May 1886, |
|
6 days after its creation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
David Robertson was created Baron Marjoribanks on
12 June 1873. The title became extinct on his |
|
death on 19 June 1873, 7 days after creation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The shortest lived life peerage is that of Jeremy
John Heywood, who was created Baron Heywood |
|
of Whitehall on 26 October 2018 and who died 9
days later on 4 November 2018. He is followed by |
|
Arthur Brian Deane Faulkner, who was created
Baron Faulkner of Downpatrick on 7 February 1977 |
|
and who died 24 days later on 3 March 1977. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At least three life peerages were announced where
the intended recipients died before the creation |
|
could
be completed. It was announced on 26 June 1979 that John Emerson Harding
Davies was to |
|
be made a life peer but he died on 4 July 1979
before the peerage was gazetted. Similarly, Dame |
|
Shelagh Marjorie Roberts' life peerage was
announced on 31 December 1991, but she died on 16 |
|
January 1992. Also, Sir David English's
appointment as a peer was announced in June 1998 but he |
|
died on 10 June. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On 29 Mar 1962, it was announced that Sir Ian
MacDonald Horobin would be granted a life peerage. |
|
He withdrew his acceptance of the peerage on 13
April 1962. He was subsequently arrested on |
|
charges of indecency in May 1962 and in July 1962
was sentenced to 4 years imprisonment. |

Oldest peers upon creation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The oldest person to have created an hereditary
peer was William Francis Kyffin-Taylor, who was |
|
created Baron Maenan on 29 June 1948. He was born
on 9 July 1854 and was therefore 93 years |
|
and 356 days old when he was made a peer. He died
on 22 September 1951 when the peerage |
|
became extinct. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only 10 days younger was Francis Aungier
Pakenham, Earl of Longford who was granted a life |
|
peerage as Baron Pakenham of Cowley on 16
November 1999, at the age of 93 years and 346 days. |
