Arms of the Barons Dacre.

Baron Dacre is a title that has been created three times in the Peerage of England, every time by writ, which means that the peerages can descend through both male and female lines. The first creation came in 1321 when Ralph Dacre was summoned to Parliament as Lord Dacre. He married Margaret, 2nd Baroness Multon de Gillesland. However, the status of this barony is uncertain after Margaret's death in 1361. Lord Dacre's younger son, the third Baron, was murdered in 1375. He was succeeded by his younger brother, the fourth Baron. The latter's grandson was Thomas Dacre, the sixth Baron. His second son Ralph was summoned to Parliament as Lord Dacre (of Gillesland) in 1459 (see below). However, this creation became extinct on his death in 1461. Thomas's third son Humphrey was summoned to Parliament as Lord Dacre (of Gillesland) in 1482 (for more information on this creation, see below).

Thomas was succeeded by his granddaughter Joan, the seventh Baroness (daughter of Lord Dacre's eldest son Sir Thomas Dacre). She was the wife of Sir Richard Fiennes. In 1459 Richard was summoned to Parliament as Lord Dacre in right of his wife. Their great-great-grandson, the ninth Baron, is notable for his conviction of murder in 1541, with his title forfeited. However, his son Gregory was restored to the title in 1558. He was succeeded by his sister Margaret, the eleventh Baroness. She was the wife of Sampson Lennard. Their great-grandson, the fourteenth Baron, married Elizabeth Bayning, daughter of Paul Bayning, 1st Viscount Bayning of Sudbury, who in 1674 was created Viscountess Bayning for life.

However, the earldom became extinct on his death in 1715 while the barony fell into abeyance between his two daughters the Hon. Barbara and the Hon. Anne. Barbara died childless in 1741 and the abeyance was terminated the same year in favour of Anne, the sixteenth Baroness. She was married three times, firstly to Richard Barrett, secondly to Henry Roper, 8th Baron Teynham, and thirdly to the Hon. Robert Moore, son of Henry Moore, 3rd Earl of Drogheda. She was succeeded by her son from her first marriage, the seventeenth Baron. He died without legitimate issue and was succeeded by his nephew, the eighteenth Baron. He was the son of Hon.

The barony remained a subsidiary title of the viscountcy until the death of his great-grandson, the fourth Viscount and twenty-sixth Baron, in 1965.
