Baron Digby
Baron Digby, of Geashill in the King's County, is a title in the Peerage of Ireland.
==Origin==
The title was created in 1620 for Robert Digby, Governor of King's County. He was the nephew of John Digby, 1st Earl of Bristol. Lord Digby's grandson, the third Baron, and the latter's younger brothers the fourth and fifth Barons, all represented Warwick in Parliament.
The 5th Baron's grandson, the 6th Baron, sat as a Member of Parliament for Malmesbury and for Wells. His younger brother, the 7th Baron, represented Ludgershall and Wells in the House of Commons. In 1765 he was created Baron Digby, of Sherborne in the County of Dorset, in the ''Peerage of Great Britain'', with remainder to the male issue of his father. In 1790 Lord Digby was further honoured when he was made Viscount Coleshill and Earl Digby in the ''Peerage of Great Britain'', with remainder to the issue male of his body.
His son, the 2nd Earl, was Lord Lieutenant of Dorset from 1808 to 1856. He never married and on his death in 1856 the viscountcy and earldom became extinct.
