4th Baronet (1895–1959) Lawson, later Howard-Lawson baronets, of Brough Hall (1841; Second creation) The Lawson, later Howard-Lawson Baronetcy, of Brough Hall in the County of York, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 8 September 1841 for William Lawson. Born William Wright, he was the son of John Wright, of Kelvedon, by Elizabeth Lawson, daughter of the fifth Baronet of the 1665 creation (see above), whose surname he assumed in lieu of his patronymic. His mother had previously inherited the Lawson family seat of Brough Hall. The third Baronet married Ursula Mary Howard in 1899. She was the only living heir of Sir Philip John Canning Howard, of Corby Castle, Cumberland, a descendant of Sir Francis Howard, son of Lord William Howard, third son of Thomas Howard, 4th Duke of Norfolk. The sixth Baronet assumed by Royal Licence in 1962 the Howard name and arms and then resumed use of the Lawson name in 1992. On the death of the fourth Baronet in 1975 Brough Hall was left to his two daughters, Valerie Worthington (née Lawson) and Jill Lawson. The title passed to his younger brother William, the fifth Baronet, and the seat moved to Corby Castle, Cumbria, ancestral home of the Howard family. Corby Castle was sold in 1994 to Lord Ballyedmond. The fifth Baronet was a Deputy Lieutenant of Cumbria between 1963 and 1983. In 2010, Philip Howard, the son of Sir John Philip Howard-Lawson, 6th Baronet, sued the latter for unlawfully selling the ancestral home of Corby Castle. It was reported in February and March 2012 that the suit had been rejected by the original court and again at appeal, and that Philip Howard was intending to pursue it in the Supreme Court.
