Daughter of Theophilus Earl of Lincoln, and Baron of
Clinton, and Aunt and Co-heir of Edward Earl of Lincoln, and Baron of Clinton, who died without Issue in
1692; with a Pedigree thereunto annexed; together with
His Majesty's Reference thereof to this House; and the
Report of His Majesty's Attorney General annexed.
Which Petition and Reference were read by the
Clerk, and are as follow; (videlicet)
To the King's Most Excellent Majesty.
"The Humble Petition of Robert George William
Trefusis Esquire, in respect to his Claim to
the Barony of Clinton, as Lineal Descendant
and Heir General of the Body of Lady Arabella Clinton, Second Daughter of Theophilus
Earl of Lincoln, and Baron of Clinton, and
Aunt and Co-heir of Edward Earl of Lincoln,
and Baron of Clinton, who died without Issue
in 1692.
Sheweth,
"That the Petitioner's Ancestor, the said Theophilus
Earl Lincoln, was seised of the said Barony of Clinton,
by Descent from his Ancestors who had been severally
and successively summoned to Parliament from the
Time of King Edward the Third, and died in the
Year 1667, having had Issue one Son, Edward, and
three Daughters; Lady Catherine, Wife of George
Booth, afterwards Lord Delamere; Lady Arabella,
Wife of Robert Rolle Esquire; and Lady Margaret,
Wife of the Honourable Hugh Boscawen.
"That the said Edward died in the Life-time of his
Father, leaving Issue only one Child, Edward, who
succeeded his Grandfather as Earl of Lincoln, and
Baron of Clinton, and died without Issue in 1692;
upon which Event the Earldom of Lincoln passed
(according to the Patent) to Sir Francis Fiennes,
alias Clinton, Grandson of Sir Edward Fiennes, alias
Clinton, Uncle of the said Theophilus, as Heir Male
of the Body of the first Earl. But the said Barony
of Clinton being a Barony by Writ, fell into Abeyance among the Issue of the said Catharine, Arabella,
and Margaret, Daughters of the said Theophilus, and
Aunts of the said Edward Earl of Lincoln, and Baron
of Clinton, and so continued until the Year 1720,
when His Majesty King George the First, was pleased
to exercise His Royal Prerogative, and to determine
the said Abeyance by summoning Hugh Fortescue,
Grandson and Heir of the said Lady Margaret Boscawen, to the Parliament by the Title of Hugh Fortescue de Clinton Chevalier.
That the said Hugh Fortescue, Baron of Clinton,
died without Issue in 1751, and Margaret Fortescue,
his only surviving Sister and Heir, used and enjoyed
the Title of Baroness of Clinton during her Life, and
died unmarried in 1760.
That upon the Death of the said Margaret Lady
Clinton, all the Issue from the said Lady Margaret
Boscawen, third Daughter of the said Theophilus Earl
of Lincoln, became extinct.
That the Issue of Lady Catherine Booth, eldest
Daughter of the said Theophilus Earl of Lincoln,
had also become extinct in 1717, by the Death of
her only Child Vere Booth, who died unmarried in
that Year, and therefore the said Barony of Clinton
did upon the Death of the said Margaret Lady Clinton, devolve on Margaret Countess of Orford deceased,
as only Daughter and Heir of Samuel Rolle Esquire,
Son and Heir of the said Lady Arabella Rolle.
That the said Margaret Countess of Orford, and
Baroness of Clinton, died at Pisa in January 1781,
leaving Issue only one Son, George, late Earl of Orford,
and Baron of Clinton.
That the said George, late Earl of Orford, and Baron
of Clinton, died without Issue in December 1791, and
Your Majesty's Petitioner is advised that the said
Barony of Clinton is thereby devolved upon him as
Heir General of the Body of the said Lady Arabella
Rolle, being great Grandson and Heir of Samuel Trefusis, only Son that left Issue of Francis Trefusis, by
Bridget his Wife, only Daughter that married of the
said Lady Arabella Rolle.
Your Majesty's Petitioner therefore most humbly prays, that Your Majesty will be graciously
