The word baron comes from Spanish barón, itself from Frankish baro meaning "freeman, warrior"; it merged with cognate Old English beorn meaning "nobleman." In the British peerage system, barons rank below viscounts, being the lowest rank in the peerage. A female of baronial rank has the honorific baroness. A baron may hold a barony, if the title relates originally to a feudal barony by tenure, although such tenure is now obsolete in England and any such titles are now held in gross, if they survive at all, sometimes along with some vestigial manorial rights, or by grand serjeanty. William I introduced "baron" as a rank into England to distinguish the men who had pledged their loyalty to him (see Feudalism). Previously, in the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of England, the king's companions held the title of earls and in Scotland, the title of thane. All who held their barony "in chief of the king" (that is, directly from William and his successors) became alike barones regis (barons of the king), bound to perform a stipulated service, and welcome to attend his council. Before long, the greatest of the nobles, especially in the marches, such as the Earls of Chester or the Bishops of Durham, might refer to their own tenants as "barons", where lesser magnates spoke simply of their "men" (homines). Initially those who held land direct of the crown by military service, from earls downwards, all alike bore the title of baron, but under Henry II, the Dialogus de Scaccario already distinguished greater (who held in baroniam by knights' service) or lesser baronies (generally smaller single manors). Within a century of the Norman Conquest, as in Thomas Becket's case (1164), there arose the practice of sending to each greater baron a special summons to the council that evolved into the House of Lords, while the lesser barons, Magna Carta (1215) stipulated, would receive summons only in general, through the sheriffs. Thus appeared a definite distinction, which eventually had the effect of restricting to the greater barons the rights and privileges of peerage. Later, the sovereign could create a new barony in one of two ways: by a writ of summons directing someone to Parliament, or by letters patent. Writs of summons featured in medieval times, but creation by letters patent has become the norm. Baronies thus no longer directly relate to land ownership, following the Modus Tenendi Parliamenta (1419), the Feudal Tenure Act (1662), and the Fines and Recoveries Act (1834) which enabled such titles to be dis-entailed. In pre-republican Germany all the knightly families (sometimes distinguished by the prefix "von") eventually were recognised as of baronial rank. Families which had always held this status were called Original Nobility, or Uradel. These families held their titles from their lord, in this case, the Duke of Bohemia ("Bohem" in German). The holder of an allodial (i.e. free-standing) barony was thus called a Free Lord, or Freiherr, and its various variations occupied the same rank as a foreign Baron, exclusively (as in the Holy Roman Empire) or concurrently. Today there is less if any legal privilege associated with noble titles. The offspring of holders of original hereditary titles may choose to distinguish themselves from a later-ennobled family by abbreviating "von" as "v.", however, many baron surnames do not contain any such prefix. Generally, all male members of a baronial family inherited the title Baron equally, and were so called from birth. As a result, it was much easier to inherit a German barony than, say, a French or English one, and the title may therefore be considered to rank below even an English baronet, though higher than an armigerous esquire. The German nobility was the elite ruling class or aristocratic class in the Holy Roman Empire, of which Bohemia was a part, and in what is now modern Germany.  The nobility of the former Holy Roman Empire and Germany continues to play an important role in the various European nations, which have not abolished the nobility. Most of the European royal families are descendants of the Holy Roman Empire and/or German nobility. Most, but not all, surnames of the Holy Roman Empire and German nobility were preceded by or at least contained the preposition von, meaning of, and sometimes by zu, which usually is translated as of when used alone or as in, at, or to. The two were occasionally combined into von und zu, meaning approximately of and in . Other forms exist as well: von der (of the), vom (of the), zur (of the, in the, etc) and zum (of the, in the). German noble families almost always bore a Coat of Arms. Titles in Germany were not recognized after the abdication of the last Holy Roman Emperor, and from 1919 when government-sanctioned and recognized titles of nobility were terminated. However they are still considered very important socially. With these titles comes your right to be referred to as "noble", be referred to as "Lord" and/or "Lady" or the appropriate pre and/or post-nominal depending on the title granted, and to use the preposition "von" or its abbreviation "v." before your surname as granted with your title. To preserve the feudal naming practice, even in cases where upper ranking bureaucrats were the recipients of patents of nobility on the basis of long service and/or merit, as in the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries the old practice of denoting a noble with a territorial designation was continued out of a sense of tradition. Thus, nobles were created under the formula, "Noble von XYZ", where the surname, XYZ, (or possibly a place name such as "von Rosenberg"), XYZ, followed the German preposition 'von', which, in this context, was taken to denote nobility. The English translation of this is normally "Noble of XYZ", where "XYZ" is classically a place name, but often a surname. Frequently, the nobiliary particle von (English 'of', or, more commonly, the French particule de noblesse 'de', meaning the same thing), was represented simply by the abbreviation 'v.' to specify that it was being used to denote a member of the nobility, and not simply as the ordinary German-language preposition 'von'. An example of such a person's name and title is 'Josef Draginda, Baron von Draginda, (or Baron v. Draginda)'. His wife (or a female baron) would have been, for example, 'Johanna Draginda, Baronin (or Baronesse) von Draginda'. "Letters Patent" are a type of written instrument in the form of an open letter issued granting an office, title, or status to a person. Letters patent often start with a salutation such as "To all to whom these presents shall come Greeting" or "To all to whom these Presents shall come or whom the same may in any way concern, GREETING:" "Apostille" is a French word which means a certification. It is commonly used in English to refer to the legalization of a document for international use under the terms of the 1961 Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents. Documents which have been certified with a conformant apostille may be accepted for legal use in all the nations that have signed the Hague Convention. While obtaining an apostille can be a highly complex process, Your Apostille for your Knighthood or Title is provided for you with this listing.
