1543 the uncle & brother of Queen Katherine Parr, both named William, began an enjoyable Christmas season as they were each given new titles. The elder became Baron Parr of Horton & the younger was granted the title of earl of Essex. The ennoblement took place in the Presence Chamber at Hampton Court. Following the ceremony, both men dined in the Council Chamber, their new title having been announced to all present. bit.ly/1EsqYq9
