Prior to the creation of the dukedom the early nobles of England associated with Richmondshire were Lords and Earls of Richmond.

These became extinct at his death in 1624, but his Scottish honours devolved on his brother Esmé, Earl of March, who thus became 3rd Duke of Lennox in the peerage of Scotland.

The titles Earl of March and Baron Settrington were created in the peerage of England along with the Dukedom of Richmond.

The titles Earl of Darnley and Lord Torbolton were created in the peerage of Scotland along with the dukedom of Lennox.

Finally, the title Earl of Kinrara was created in the peerage of the United Kingdom with the dukedom of Gordon.

Henry Fitzroy, Duke of Richmond and Somerset (creation of 1525), bore the Tudor royal arms (quarterly France and England) with a border quarterly ermine (for Brittany) and compony azure and argent (for Somerset), a baton sinister argent for bastardy, and overall an escutcheon of Nottingham.
