Baron Grey de Wilton
Baron Grey de Wilton is a title that has been created twice, once in the Peerage of England (1295), and once in the Peerage of the United Kingdom (1784).
==History==
The first creation was on 23 June 1295 when Reginald de Grey was summoned to the Model Parliament as ''Lord Grey de Wilton''. This branch of the Grey family of aristocrats was based at the Wilton Castle on the Welsh border in Herefordshire. The Greys of Wilton as well as the other old noble families bearing the name Grey/Gray are descended from the Norman knight Anchetil de Greye. Wilton Castle itself passed from the family when the thirteenth Baron was forced to sell it to raise his ransom after being captured in France. Sir Thomas Grey, the fifteenth Baron was attainted in 1603, forfeiting his titles and honours, after being convicted of treason for his alleged involvement in the Bye Plot against King James I. Grey never married. As the attainder against him was not reversed prior to his death and as he was the last male line descendant of the 1st Baron Grey de Wilton, the title became definitively extinct.〔https://play.google.com/books/reader?id=aB0IAAAAQAAJ&printsec=frontcover&output=reader&authuser=0&hl=en&pg=GBS.PA232〕
The second creation was in 1784, when Sir Thomas Egerton (1749 – 1814) was created Baron Grey of Wilton, of Wilton Castle, with remainder to the heirs male of his body. He was a member of the Egerton family and had in 1756 succeeded to his father's Grey Egerton baronetcy. The 1st Baronet had married Bridget Grey, the sister of Sir Thomas Grey. In 1801 the 1st Baron Grey of Wilton was also made Viscount Grey of Wilton and Earl of Wilton, of Wilton Castle in the County Hereford, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. The latter titles were created with remainder to the second and the younger sons successively of his daughter Lady Eleanor, wife of Robert Grosvenor, 1st Marquess of Westminster. On the 1st Earl of Wilton's death in 1804 theGrey de Wilton barony became extinct as he had no sons while the Grey Egerton baronetcy was passed on to a distant relative. The titles of ''Earl of Wilton'' and ''Viscount Grey de Wilton'' passed, according to the special remainder, to the 1st Earl's grandson Thomas Grosvenor (1799–1882), who adopted the surname of Egerton and became the 2nd Earl. These titles are still extant.
