  Barbara Palmer, 1st Duchess of Cleveland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Barbara Palmer, 1st Duchess of Cleveland [1] (November 1640–9 October 1709) was a royal courtesan and one of the most notorious of King Charles II's mistresses.
She was born Barbara Villiers, the only child of William Villiers, 2nd Viscount Grandison (making her a cousin of George Villiers, 2nd Duke of Buckingham), and the heiress Mary Bayning.
In December 1663 Barbara announced her conversion to Catholicism, possibly in an attempt to consolidate her position with the King.

The first husband of the duchess, Roger Palmer, earl of Castlemaine (1634–1705), diplomatist and author, was an ardent Roman Catholic, who defended his co-religionists in several publications.
The duke was succeeded in the title in turn by three of his sons, who all died without male issue; and consequently when Harry George, the 4th duke, died in 1891 the title again became extinct.
