- Viscount_Wimborne abstract "Viscount Wimborne, of Canford Magna in the County of Dorset, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1918 for Ivor Guest, 2nd Baron Wimborne. The Guest family descends from the engineer and businessman John Josiah Guest. On 14 August 1838 he was created a baronet, of Dowlais in the County of Glamorgan, in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. He was succeeded by his eldest son, the second Baronet. In 1880 he was created Baron Wimborne, of Canford Magna in the County of Dorset, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. On his death the titles passed to his eldest son, the second Baron. In 1910, four years before he succeeded his father, he had been raised to the Peerage of the United Kingdom in his own right as Baron Ashby St Ledgers, of Ashby St Ledgers in the County of Northampton. On his retirement as Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland in 1918 he was further honoured when he was made Viscount Wimborne, of Canford Magna in the County of Dorset, in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. His son, the second Viscount, represented Breconshire in the House of Commons. As of 2014 the titles are held by the latter's grandson, the fourth Viscount, who succeeded his father in 1993. Several other members of the family have also gained distinction. Montague Guest, third son of the first Baronet, was a Liberal Member of Parliament. Frederick Edward Guest, Henry Guest and Oscar Guest, younger sons of the first Baron, were all prominent politicians. Also, Lady Charlotte Guest was the second wife of the first Baronet.In 1870 the first Viscount bought a large house at 22 Arlington Street, London, which remained their London residence until 1947.".
