Baron Carew
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Baron Carew is a peerage title that has been created thrice. The first creation was in the Peerage of England in 1605. The recipient, Sir George Carew, was later made Earl of Totnes. At his death, both titles became extinct as he left no heirs.
The next two creations were in favour of the same person, Robert Carew, who had previously represented County Wexford in Parliament and served as Lord Lieutenant of County Wexford. In 1834 he was created Baron Carew in the Peerage of Ireland and in 1838 he was made Baron Carew, of Castle Boro in the County of Wexford, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. His eldest son, the second Baron, sat as Liberal Member of Parliament for Waterford and was Lord Lieutenant of County Wexford.
