There have been three baronetcies, all in the Baronetage of England, created for members of the family of Mansel, which played a major role in the early re-settlement of the Gower Peninsula, in Glamorgan, Wales. Only one creation is extant as of 2008. The Mansel Baronetcy of Margam, in the County of Glamorgan, was created in the Baronetage of England on 22 May 1611.〔(George Edward Cokayne ''Complete Baronetage Volume 1'' 1900 (1611 creation) )〕 For more information on this creation, see the Baron Mansel. The Mansel Baronetcy of Muddlescombe, in the County of Carmarthen, was created in the Baronetage of England on 14 January 1622 for Francis Mansel. He was the younger brother of the first Baronet of the 1611 creation. The ninth Baronet sat as Member of Parliament for Carmarthenshire. There was great confusion over the succession after the death of the eleventh Baronet in 1883. The rightful heir was believed to be Edward Berkeley Philipps (later Mansel), son of Courtenay Philipps, son of Richard Mansel, younger brother of the tenth Baronet. However, it was widely believed that Courtenay Philipps's first marriage was invalid. The title was therefore assumed by Edward Berkeley Philipps's half-brother Richard Philipps (later Mansel) as the twelfth Baronet. On his death in 1892 the title was assumed by his son Courtenay Cecil Mansel, the thirteenth Baronet. However, in 1903 the latter discovered evidence that his grandfather's first marriage was indeed valid and relinquished the use of the title in favour of his uncle Edward Berkeley Philipps (later Mansel), who became the twelfth Baronet. When he died childless in 1908 the title was resumed by his nephew Courtenay Cecil Mansel, the thirteenth Baronet. Sir Courtenay Cecil Mansel later represented Penryn and Falmouth in the House of Commons.〔(George Edward Cokayne ''Complete Baronetage Volume 1'' 1900 (1622 creation) )〕 The Mansel Baronetcy of Trimsaran, in the County of Carmarthen, was created in the Baronetage of England on 22 February 1697 for Edward Mansel. The title became extinct on the death of the fourth Baronet in 1798. ==Mansel baronets, of Margam (1611)== *see the Baron Mansel 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mansel baronets」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
