the possessor of a fief ,
who had feudal tenants under him ;
in modern times ,
in France and Germany ,
a nobleman next in rank below a count ;

[
1913 Webster ]
Note : "
The tenants in chief from the Crown ,
who held lands of the annual value of four hundred pounds ,
were styled Barons ;
and it is to them ,
and not to the members of the lowest grade of the nobility (
to whom the title at the present time belongs ),
that reference is made when we read of the Barons of the early days of England '
s history . . . .
Barons are addressed as `
My Lord ,'
and are styled `
Right Honorable .'
All their sons and daughters are `
Honorable .'" --
