Hereditary peerages with special limitations in remainder



The colour code used on this page is shown in the List of administrations.

Hereditary peerages normally descend, on the death of the grantee, to "the heirs male of his [her] body lawfully begotten". This list incorporates all hereditary peerages of the United Kingdom containing a different provision. Such provisions are of three main kinds: (1) The inclusion of alternative recipients (typically daughters or collateral relatives) in the event of there being no male issue. (2) The restriction of descent to issue by a named wife or husband of the grantee. (3) Where a peerage is conferred on the heir apparent to the Throne, "To hold to him and his heirs Kings of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas for ever". In practice such a peerage "merges in the Crown" and the special remainder is of no practical significance.

In the list below, details of special remainders are quoted where they are available in the online archive of the London Gazette, together with hyperlinks to the relevant pages (updated April 2014 to link to the new Gazette website). Details of some 19th-century special remainders have been taken from the House of Lords Journals (in which the text of letters patent are normally given for introductions after 1850). Summaries are given of the special remainders in other cases (using the abbreviation "& h m of b" for "and the heirs male of his/her body lawfully begotten").

Eleven of the peerages of Ireland created after 1800 had special remainders. These are noted in the list of such peerages on this website.
