Baron Roberts of Kandahar

Baron Roberts of Kandahar

The title Baron Roberts of Kandahar was the first of three peerages awarded to Frederick Roberts, a great British military hero of the 19th century, having been awarded to him on 1 January 1892. Unlike the other two titles (Earl Roberts and Viscount St Pierre), no special remainder was attached to this peerage, and as his sons predecased him, the barony became extinct upon Roberts's death.
