Baron FitzHugh, of Ravensworth, is an abeyant title in the Peerage of England. It was created in 1321 for Sir Henry FitzHugh. The title passed through the male line until the death of the seventh baron, George FitzHugh, in 1513 when it became abeyant between his great-aunts Alice, Lady Fiennes and Elizabeth, Lady Parr, and to this day their descendants (listed below). The family seat was Ravensworth Castle. ==Barons FitzHugh (1321)== *Henry FitzHugh, 1st Baron FitzHugh (d. 1356) *Hugh FitzHugh, 2nd Baron FitzHugh (d. 1386) * *Married Joan Scrope, daughter of Henry Scrope, 1st Baron Scrope of Masham. *Henry FitzHugh, 3rd Baron FitzHugh (c. 1358–1425) * *A Knight of the Garter.
