The Earldom of Plymouth has been created thrice, twice in the Peerage of England and once in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. The first creation was in 1675 for Charles FitzCharles, illegitimate son of King Charles II. He died without heirs, so the title became extinct. The second creation was in 1682 for Thomas Hickman-Windsor; that title, too, eventually became extinct. The daughter of the 6th Earl married the Hon. Robert Henry Clive, a son of the 1st Earl of Powis, and the final Plymouth creation came in 1905 when their grandson Robert Windsor-Clive was created Earl.
