The
title
Earl of Newburgh
(pronounced "
New
-bruh") was created in the
Peerage of Scotland
in 1660 for
James Livingston, 1st Viscount of Newburgh
, along with the
subsidiary titles
Viscount of Kynnaird
and
Lord Levingston
.
The
viscountcy
of Newburgh and
Livingston baronetcy
, which devolved upon the 1st Earl, were created with
remainder
to heirs male and became extinct on the death of the 2nd Earl (2nd Viscount and 3rd Baronet). However, the Earldom and its subsidiary titles, which were created with
remainder
to heirs whomsoever,
[1]
can be inherited through
male and female lines
, thus passing by marriage through various different families.
The 3rd Countess's second husband was the
titular 5th Earl of Derwentwater
(a younger brother of the
attainted
3rd Earl
), and so the 4th and 5th Earls of Newburgh were also
titular
Earls of Derwentwater
.
On the death of the 5th Earl (also titular 7th Earl of Derwentwater), the title passed to a descendant of the daughter (and only child) of the 3rd Countess by her first husband, namely the 6th Prince
Giustiniani
. His daughter, the
7th Countess of Newburgh
married the 4th Marquis Bandini and was succeeded, upon her death in 1877, by her son (created
Prince Bandini-Giustiniani
in 1863) as
8th Duke of Mondragone
and
8th Earl of Newburgh
. In 1941, upon the death of his son the 9th Earl, the
title
devolved upon the
princely
Rospigliosi family
.
The 12th and present
Earl of Newburgh
is usually known in
Italy
- he lives in
Milan
- as Prince Rospigliosi, and holds several other
titles of nobility
:
Duke of Zagarolo
,
Prince of Castiglione
,
Marquis of Giuliana
,
Count of Chiusa
and
Baron of La Miraglia and Valcorrente
(
Two Sicilies
and
Italy
),
Lord of Aldone, Burgio, Contessa and Trappeto
(
Rome
), and
Patrician of Venice, Genoa, Pistoia, Ferrara and Ravenna
(
Venice and Genoa
). Italian titles are not protected by law since 1948, so these titles are purely nominal.
