Duke of Huéscar (Spanish: Duque de Huéscar) is a hereditary title in the Spanish nobility. The title was created in 1563 by King Philip II of Spain and bestowed on Fadrique Álvarez de Toledo y Enríquez, 6th Marquis of Coria, son and heir of Fernando Álvarez de Toledo, 3rd Duke of Alba. It was granted as a title for the male heirs apparent of the subsequent dukes of Alba, who until then held the marquisate of Coria before succeeding to the dukedom of Alba. Its name refers to the village of Huéscar, Granada, one of the manors of the House of Alba. HistoryThe dukedom was only to be held by the male heirs apparent of the dukes of Alba. María Teresa Álvarez de Toledo (daughter of Francisco Álvarez de Toledo, 10th Duke of Alba) became the 11th Duchess of Alba after her father's death, but she was never the Duchess of Huéscar. It was her son Fernando de Silva, born in his grandfather's lifetime, who received the title at birth. This changed in 1776, when Fernando de Silva died without a male heir and his granddaughter, Cayetana de Silva, did not have any issue from her marriage to José María Álvarez de Toledo, 15th Duke of Medina Sidonia. Cayetana de Silva claimed and received the title, becoming the only female holder of the dukedom of Huéscar. Cayetana de Silva died childless and most of her titles were inherited by her nephew, Carlos Miguel Fitz-James Stuart, 7th Duke of Berwick. However, he did not claim the dukedom of Huéscar, which became dormant. Sixty years later, his son Jacobo asked for the resumption of the dormant dukedom. On 6 September 1871, it was restored with a grandeeship of Spain[1] to his son and heir, Carlos María Fitz-James Stuart. The title has been held since then by the heirs apparent of the dukes of Alba, following the tradition. The late duchess of Alba, Cayetana Fitz-James Stuart, was never Duchess of Huéscar (instead she was Duchess of Montoro, a title held by the eldest daughters of the dukes of Alba), as it was her son Carlos, born in his grandfather's lifetime, who received the title at birth.
