Duke of Cumberland and Strathearn

The title of Duke of Cumberland had been created three times in the Peerages of England and Great Britain.

The title of Duke of Cumberland and Strathearn was created on 22 October 1766 in the Peerage of Great Britain. This double dukedom and the Earldom of Dublin in the Peerage of Ireland were bestowed on Prince Henry, the third son of Frederick, Prince of Wales, and grandson of King George II. Since Prince Henry died without legitimate children, the title became extinct.

The title of Duke of Cumberland and Teviotdale was later created in the Peerage of Great Britain.

Cumberland is a historic county of England, while the title Strathearn referred to the strath (valley) of the River Earn in Scotland; the ancient title Earl/Mormaer of Strathearn died out in the 15th century.^[1]
