House of Montagu


The House of Montagu is a British noble family founded in Somerset by the Norman Drogo de Montaigu in the eleventh century after the Norman Conquest. The family has produced multiple titles, including Baron Montagu, Viscount Montagu, Earl of Montagu, and Duke of Montagu, as well as the extant Montagu Baronies of Kimbolton, St Neots and Beaulieu. The maternal lines of Ladde and Brudenell both retook the ancestral name and arms of Montagu on their respective raising to the peerage, and are recognised cadet branches of the House. The head of the house is the Duke of Manchester.
