Earls in the peerage of England
[edit]As can be seen from the list above, the men who are (1) Earl of Pembroke and Montgomery, (2) Earl of Suffolk and Berkshire, (3) Earl of Lindsey and Abingdon and (4) Earl of Winchilsea and Nottingham each hold two earldoms in the peerage of England. There are therefore 24 such earldoms whose holder does not hold a higher peerage.
Earls in the Peerage of Scotland
[edit]Note: The precedence of the older Scottish earldoms is determined by the Decreet of Ranking of 1606, and not by seniority.
As can be seen from the list above, the men who are (1) Earl of Crawford and Balcarres, (2) Earl of Elgin and Kincardine, (3) Earl of Wemyss and Earl of March and (4) Earl of Leven and Melville each hold two earldoms in the peerage of Scotland. There are therefore 43 such earldoms whose holder does not hold a higher peerage.
