	James Stanhope, 7th Earl Stanhope - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		James Richard Stanhope, 13th Earl of Chesterfield and 7th Earl Stanhope (1880-1967) was a British politician in the late 1930s as The Earl Stanhope.
		In 1952 he succeeded his kinsman the 12th Earl of Chesterfield as 13th Earl of Chesterfield and 13th Baron Stanhope, but never used the more senior Earldom of Chesterfield, and continued to be known as The Earl Stanhope.
		As he had no close heirs, both Earldoms and the Barony of Stanhope became extinct upon his death, but the Viscountcy of Stanhope of Mahon and the Barony of Stanhope of Elvaston passed to his nearest heir, the 11th Earl of Harrington.
