county
town is the 'capital' of a county in the Republic of Ireland or
the United Kingdom. County towns are usually the location of
administrative or judicial functions, or established over time as the
de facto main town of a county. The concept of a county town eventually
became detached from its original meaning of where the county
administration is based. Sources: Ancestry.com the Peerage Wikapedia Editor's Note:We have noticed in our research, Lancaster is mentioned as a location, rather than Lancashire. It could be this is due to Lancaster's ties with the crown. As such, we have left these location names as we have found them 1Joan of Kent, Countess of Kent was born on 29 September 1328.
