  • Marquess of Reading is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1926 for Rufus Isaacs, 1st Earl of Reading, the former Viceroy of India and Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales. He had already been created Baron Reading, of Erleigh in the County of Berkshire, in 1914, Viscount Reading, of Erleigh in the County of Berkshire, in 1916, and Viscount Erleigh, of Erleigh in the County of Berkshire, and Earl of Reading, in 1917. The marquessate is the highest title in the British peerage ever attained by a Jew, and is the juniormost Marquessate in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. Lord Reading was succeeded by his son, the second Marquess. He notably held ministerial office from 1951 to 1957 in the Conservative administrations of Winston Churchill and Anthony Eden. As of 2007 the titles are held by his grandson, the fourth Marquess, who succeeded his father in 1980. The Isaacs family lived until recently at Jaynes Court, Bisley, Gloucestershire. In May 1804, the title of Baron Reading was offered to the outgoing Prime Minister, Henry Addington, who had many links with the town, as a subsidiary title of the customary retirement Earldom for Prime Ministers. However, Addington refused the honour, though later accepting a peerage as Viscount Sidmouth. See also the Earl of Banbury.
