Untitled[edit]

We have a problem of how to disambiguate the 1st two barons of each creation for this page.

The younger and the older seems to be the normal way.

Additionally, there is the problem of the first baron of Kidderminster, rather than the first Baron Foley of Kidderminster.

"The first baron by patent was John de Beauchamp of Holt, who was raised to the peerage by K. Richard II. in the eleventh year of his reign(Oct. 10, 1387) by the title of baron of Kidderminster."
