Lionel Cranfield was first Earl of Middlesex. The title passed to his son(s?) and the title became extinct upon their death. A grandson, Lionel Cranfield SACKVILLE, became first Earl (Duke?) of Dorcet. The distinction between the two is not made very clear in a number of references, but checking the dates will clear it up.

Charles was this time more than the Right Honorable, he doth be Lord Buckhurst, not be Duke or Earl but I doth think it be a Baronet.
