	Peerage - InfoSearchPoint.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The mode of inheritance of a peerage, except in the case of life peerages, title is determined by the method of its creation.
		There are several distinct groupings of peerages within Britain: the peerage of England pertains to all titles created by the Kings and Queens of England prior to the Act of Union in 1707.
		Not all British titles are peerage titles: knights and baronets are not by virtue of those titles peers, nor are princes or princesses (unless they have also been granted a peerage title, as royal princes usually are).

	Wikinfo \| Peerage
		In Scotland, the term "Baron" refers to a feudal one, and not to a peer; the equivalent to the English baron is the Lord of Parliament.
		The only hereditary peerage created in recent times for someone who is not a member of the royal family that is still extant is the Earldom of Stockton, conferred on the former Prime Minister Harold Macmillan.
		Since the rate at which peerages are becoming extinct is much higher than that of their creation, and since it is unlikely that even a future Conservative government will resume the creation of hereditary peerages, the peerage will tend to decline numerically.
