Viscount Hood

|
The title Viscount Hood was created in 1796 in the Peerage of Great Britain. Its recipient, Samuel Hood, had previously been created Baron Hood in the Peerage of Ireland. In 1795, his wife Susanna was created Baroness Hood, in her own right, in the Peerage of Great Britain. The Viscount thus holds, in addition to the Viscountcy, two Baronies of Hood, one inherited from each member of the couple.
