Baron Dudley

The title Baron Dudley was created by writ in the Peerage of England for Sir John Sutton, who served as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. At the eleventh Baron's death, the barony fell into abeyance. In 1916, after almost 160 years, the Sovereign terminated the abeyance in favour of Ferdinando Smith.
