At the death of his son, the baronies of Willoughby and Latymer fell into abeyance. Circa 1535, the Sovereign terminated the abeyance of the Willoughby title in favour of the second baron's granddaughter Elizabeth, who had married Sir Fulke Greville. The title stayed in the Greville family until the death of the fifth Baron, when the title passed to his sister, Margaret Verney. Thereafter the title has remained in the Verney family.
