- Lord Burlington redirects here. Lord Burlington most frequently refers to the architect and patron Richard Boyle, 3rd Earl of Burlington.
Earl of Burlington is a title that has been created twice, the first time in the
Peerage of England and the second in the
Peerage of the United Kingdom. The first creation was for
Richard Boyle, 2nd Earl of Cork, on
March 20,
1664 (see the
Earl of Cork for earlier history of the family). He had previously been created
Baron Clifford of Lanesborough, in the County of York, on
November 4,
1644, also in the Peerage of England. Lord Burlington was the husband of Elizabeth Clifford, 2nd Baroness Clifford. Their eldest son Charles Boyle, Viscount Dungarvan, succeeded his mother as third
Baron Clifford in 1691 but predeceased his father. Lord Burlington was therefore succeeded by his grandson (the son of Viscount Dungarvan), the third Earl of Cork and second Earl of Burlington. He had already succeeded his father as fourth Baron Clifford in 1694. His only son, the fourth Earl of Cork and third Earl of Burlington, was the famous architect and patron. He had two daughters but no sons and on his death in 1753 the barony of Clifford of Lanesborough and earldom of Burlington became extinct. He was succeeded in the earldom of Cork by his third cousin, the fifth Earl of Orrery (see the Earl of Cork for further history of these titles).
Lord Burlington was succeeded in Burlington estates and in the barony of Clifford (which could be passed on through female lines) by his daughter
Charlotte, the sixth Baroness. She was the wife of
William Cavendish, 4th Duke of Devonshire. On
September 10,
1831 the earldom of Burlington was revived when their third and youngest son
Lord George Augustus Henry Cavendish was created
Baron Cavendish of Keighley, in the County of York, and
Earl of Burlington, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. In 1858 his grandson, the second Earl, succeeded his first cousin once removed as seventh
Duke of Devonshire. For more information on this creation of the earldom, see the latter title.
