| We intend 'in due course' to work on this page again, using Lodge (Archdall, vol 3 (1789), 'Birmingham, Earl of Louth', p30+). That will, inter alia, highlight how different sources number these Lordships differently. For example, Lodge identifies the following Richard as the 14th Lord. | |||||||||||||||
