James Howard, 3rd Earl of Suffolk

James Howard, 3rd Earl of Suffolk

James Howard, 3rd Earl of Suffolk (February 10, 1606/1607 – January 7, 1688), was grandson of Thomas Howard, 1st Earl of Suffolk, and thus was himself 3rd Earl of Suffolk and 3rd Baron Howard de Walden.

At his death in 1688 without surviving sons or heirs male of his body, the earldom of Suffolk passed to his brother, but the barony Howard de Walden fell into abeyance for nearly a century, until it was called out of abeyance for a descendant of his elder daughter Lady Essex Howard, later Baroness Griffin. The title has since passed through his descendants by his younger daughter Lady Elizabeth Howard, later Lady Elizabeth Felton, although since 1999, it has fallen once again into abeyance among the four daughters and co-heiresses of the 9th Baron.

Lord Suffolk appears to have left the Jacobean house, Audley End, built by the 1st Earl, to the descendants of his elder daughter, but it has since passed out of the family.
