Baron Gorges of Dundalk was a title in the Peerage of Ireland. It was created on 13 July 1620 for Sir Edward Gorges, 1st Baron. He had already been created a baronet, of Langford in the County of Wiltshire, in the Baronetage of England on 25 November 1611.[1] Lord Gorges of Dundalk was the eldest surviving son of Sir Thomas Gorges, of Longford Castle, Wiltshire, and Helena, Marchioness of Northampton.
