 Following the failure of the senior line of the Butler family, he was the second of the Kilcash branch to inherit the earldom.
 His friend, the 1st Earl of Strafford, caused him to be appointed the commander of the Cavalier forces in Ireland.
 From 1641 to 1647, he led the fighting against the Irish Catholic Confederation.
 From 1649 to 1650 he was the leading commander of the Royalist forces in the fight against the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland.
 In the 1650s he lived in exile in Europe with King Charles II of England.
 Upon the restoration of Charles to the throne in 1660, Ormonde became a major figure in English and Irish politics, holding many high government offices.
Lord Dingwall is a title in the Peerage of Scotland.
 It was created in 1609 for Sir Richard Preston, with remainder to his heirs whatsoever.
 In 1619 he was further honoured when he was made Baron Dunmore and Earl of Desmond in the Peerage of Ireland, with remainder to heirs male.
 On his death in 1628 the Irish titles became extinct while he was succeeded in the Scottish lordship by his daughter Elizabeth, the second Lady Dingwall.
 She was the wife of James Butler, 1st Duke of Ormonde.
 Their eldest son Thomas Butler, Earl of Ossory, was summoned by writ to the English Parliament as Baron Butler, of Moore Park, in 1666.
 However, he predeceased his parents who were both succeeded by their grandson, the second Duke and third Lord Dingwall.
 He had already succeeded his father as second Baron Butler.
 However, the Duke was attainted in 1715 and his titles forfeited.
 In 1871, Francis Cowper, 7th Earl Cowper, managed to obtain a reversal of the attainder of the lordship of Dingwall and barony of Butler and became the fourth Lord Dingwall and third Baron Butler.
 He was the great-great-great-grandson of Henrietta Butler, Countess of Grantham (wife of Henry de Nassau d'Auverquerque, 1st Earl of Grantham), second daughter of Thomas Butler, Earl of Ossory and 1st Baron Butler, whose second daughter Lady Henrietta de Nassau d'Auverquerque married William Clavering-Cowper, 2nd Earl Cowper.

 The second creation came in 1626 in favour of Thomas Howard, 1st Viscount Andover.
 He was the second son of Thomas Howard, 1st Earl of Suffolk, second son of the second marriage of Thomas Howard, 4th Duke of Norfolk.
 His mother was Katherine, daughter of Sir Henry Knyvett of Charlton in Wiltshire.
 Howard had already been created Baron Howard of Charlton, in the County of Wiltshire, and Viscount Andover, in the County of Southampton, in 1622.
 These titles are also in the Peerage of England.
 Lord Berkshire succeeded to the Charlton estate through his mother in 1638.
 He was succeeded by his eldest son, the second Earl.
 He had already in 1640 been summoned to the House of Lords through a writ of acceleration in his father's junior title of Baron Howard of Charlton.
 He had no sons and on his death in 1679 the titles passed to his younger brother, the third Earl.
 He represented Wallingford in the House of Commons.
 He also died without male issue and was succeeded by his great-nephew, the fourth Earl.
 He was the grandson of the Hon. William Howard, fourth son of the first Earl.
 In 1745 he succeeded his third cousin as eleventh Earl of Suffolk.
 For further history of the titles, see the Earl of Suffolk.

 He married Sarah Inwen, daughter of Thomas Inwen and Sarah Hucks, on 13 May 1735, but died on 22 April 1745 at age 39 with no surviving issue and no brothers to whom the title could be passed.
 The line of Earls of Suffolk back to Henry's great-great grandfather Thomas Howard, 1st Earl of Suffolk thus died out, and the title passed to a great grandson of the 1st Earl (via the 1st Earl's second son Thomas), Henry Howard, 4th Earl of Berkshire.
