Earl of March


 

The title Earl of March has been created several times in the Peerage of Scotland and the Peerage of England. The title derived from the "marches" or boundaries between England and either Wales or Scotland, and was held by several great feudal families which owned lands in those border districts. Later, however, the title came to be granted as an honourary dignity, and ceased to carry any associated power in the marches.
