Marquess of Normanby is a title that has been created twice, once in the Peerage of England and once in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. The first creation came in 1694 in favour of John Sheffield, 3rd Earl of Mulgrave. In 1703 he was further honoured when he was made Duke of Buckingham and Normanby. For more information on this creation of the marquessate, see the Duke of Buckingham and Normanby. The second creation came in the Peerage of the United Kingdom on 25 June 1838, in favour of Constantine Henry Phipps, 2nd Earl of Mulgrave. The Phipps family descends from Sir Constantine Phipps, Lord Chancellor of Ireland from 1710 to 1714. His son William Phipps married Lady Catherine Annesley, daughter and heiress of James Annesley, 3rd Earl of Anglesey and his wife Lady Catherine Darnley, illegitimate daughter of King James II by his mistress Catherine Sedley, Countess of Dorchester. Lady Catherine Darnley later married the aforementioned John Sheffield, 1st Duke of Buckingham and Normanby. William Phipps's son Constantine Phipps was in 1767 raised to the Peerage of Ireland as Baron Mulgrave, of New Ross in the County of Wexford. His son, the second Baron, was a politician but is best remembered for his attempted voyage to the North Pole in 1773. In 1790 he was created Baron Mulgrave, of Mulgrave in the County of York, in the Peerage of Great Britain. Lord Mulgrave had no sons and on his death in 1792 the barony of 1790 became extinct. However, he was succeeded in the Irish barony by his younger brother, the third Baron. He was a General in the Army as well as a prominent politician, and notably served as Foreign Secretary from 1805 to 1806 and as First Lord of the Admiralty from 1807 to 1810. In 1794 the barony held by his elder brother was revived when he was made Baron Mulgrave, of Mulgrave in the County of York, in the Peerage of Great Britain. In 1812 Lord Mulgrave was further honoured when he was made Viscount Normanby, of Normanby in the County of York.
