From The London Gazette, Issue 25486 Page 3060, published 3 July 1885:
Whitehall, July 2, 1885.
The Queen has been pleased to direct Letters Patent to be passed under the Great Seal, granting the dignities of a Viscount and an Earl of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland unto the Right Honourable Sir Stafford Henry Northcote, Bart., G.C.B., and the heirs male of his body lawfully begotten, by the names, styles, and titles of Viscount Saint Cyres, of Newton Saint Cyres, in the county of Devon, and Earl of Iddesleigh, in the said county.
Likewise in the Gazette some days earlier, Issue 25484 page 2919 published 26 June, 1885:
At the Court at Windsor the 24th day of June, 1885
PRESENT.
The QUEEN's Most Excellent Majesty in Council.
This day the Right Honourable Sir Stafford Henry Northcote, Baronet, took the oaths of First Lord of Her Majesty's Treasury.
Mysteriously (to me at least) I can find no introduction of Earl Iddesleigh to the House of Lords in its July, 1885, Hansard despite the introduction of several other new peers that month, including:
-
- Baron Rothschild of Tring in the county of Hertford
-
- Baron Powerscourt, of Powerscourt in the county of Wicklow;
- Baron Northington, of Watford in the county of Northampton;
- Baron Hobhouse, of Hadspen in the county of Somerset;
-
- Earl of Ormelie in the county of Caithness, and Marquess of Breadalbane;
-
- Earl of Fife, [in that part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland called Ireland];
- Baron Esher of Esher in the county of Surrey;
