Pemberley
Pemberley is the fictional country estate owned by Fitzwilliam Darcy, the male protagonist in Jane Austen's novel "Pride and Prejudice". It is located near the fictional town of Lambton, and believed by some to be based on Chatsworth House, near Bakewell in Derbyshire.
Thomas Darcy, 1st Baron Darcy de Darcy
Following his arrest and conviction in 1537, his lands and property were seized, and in 1539 he was posthumously attainted, the barony was forfeited and his knighthood degraded. During the reign of Edward VI, his eldest son, Sir George Darcy, was restored in blood, by an Act of Parliament, in 1548, to the dignity of Baron Darcy. Some sources state, however, that this was a new creation, rather than a restoration of his father's forfeited barony. It is remarkable that the new Baron Darcy took his place in the House of Lords as the junior baron and not in the 1509 precedence of the former Barony, whereas, his son took his seat in the House of Lords in the precedence of the former barony, which assumption seems to have been condoned by the House. Although he never regained any of his father's lands, the title of Lord Darcy of Aston descended to his heirs male until it became extinct for lack of issue in 1635.
