The title earl of Rutland seems to have been assumed subsequently by different members of the See also:house of York, though it does not appear that any of them had a legal right to it.

His son Edward, 3rd earl (c. 1548-1587), who was also a favourite with Elizabeth, See also:left no sons, and the See also:barony of Ros, which had hitherto descended with the earldom, passed to his daughter Elizabeth (d. 1591), wife of See also:- WILLIAM

The barony of Ros was restored to the See also:main See also:line of the family in the See also:person of See also:Francis, 6th earl (1578-1632), who inherited it in 1618 as See also:heir See also:general of his See also:cousin William Cecil, See also:Lord Ros (159o-1618) ; but it was again separated from the earldom of Rutland on the death of Francis without male issue, and the See also:assumption of the See also:courtesy title of Lord Ros by the eldest son of subsequent earls of Rutland appears to have had no legal basis.
The 8th earl, a cousin of his predecessor and also of the 6th earl, was John (1604-1679), eldest son of Sir George Manners (d. 1623) of Haddon, a descendant of Sir John Manners, the second son of theist earl. His son John, 9th earl (1638-1711), a See also:partisan of the revolution of 1688, received the Princess Anne at Belvoir Castle on her See also:flight from See also:London; after the See also:accession of Anne to the See also:throne she created him See also:marquess of See also:Granby and duke of Rutland in 1703. The 1st duke was three times married; the See also:divorce in 167o, while he was still known as Lord Ros, of his first wife, Anne, daughter of the marquess of See also:Dorchester, was a very celebrated legal See also:case, being the first instance of divorce a vinculo by See also:act of See also:parliament, a divorce a See also:mensa et thoro having previously been granted by the ecclesiastical courts. His grandson John, the 3rd duke (1696-1779), was the father of John Manners, marquess of Granby (q.v.), a distinguished soldier, whose son See also:Charles, 4th duke of Rutland (1754-1787), succeeded his grandfather. When marquess of Granby he represented See also:Cambridge University in the House of See also:Commons, and hotly opposed the policy that led to See also:war with the See also:American colonies. He was instrumental in procuring the entrance of the younger See also:Pitt to the House of Commons, and remained through See also:life an intimate friend of that statesman. After succeeding to the dukedom in 1779, he sat in the cabinets of Shelburne and of Pitt, and became lord See also:lieutenant of See also:Ireland in 1784. He was one of the earliest to See also:advocate a legislative See also:union between Ireland and Great See also:Britain, which he recommended in a See also:letter to Pitt in See also:June 1784.

His wife, Mary See also:Isabella (1756-1831), " the beautiful duchess," whose portrait was four times painted by Sir See also:Joshua See also:Reynolds, was a daughter of the 4th duke of See also:Beaufort. His eldest son, John Henry, 5th duke (1778-1857), was " the duke " in Disraeli's Coningsby; the latter's two sons, the marquess of Granby and Lord John Manners, figuring in the same novel as "the See also:marquis of See also:Beaumanoir" and " Lord Henry Sidney " respectively. Both these sons succeeded in turn to the dukedom, Lord John Manners succeeding his brother Charles Cecil John, the 6th duke (1815-1888), as 7th duke of Rutland (see below) in 1888. In 1891 he was made a See also:knight of the Garter, being the tenth earl and the See also:sixth duke of Rutland of the same creation to See also:wear this illustrious See also:- ORDER
