Notes


The Barony of Dinorben of Kinmel Park in County Denbigh, was a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created on the 10th September 1831 for William Hughes, the long-standing Whig Member of Parliament for Wallingford. He was succeeded by his younger and only surviving son, William, the second Baron who lived only eight months after the death of his father so the barony became extinct.
