Josceline Percy, 11th Earl of Northumberland
Josceline (or Joceline) Percy, 11th Earl of Northumberland, 5th Baron Percy (4 July 1644–Turin, 31 May 1670) was an English peer.
Percy was the eldest son of Algernon Percy, 10th Earl of Northumberland and his second wife, Elizabeth Howard, daughter of Theophilus Howard, 2nd Earl of Suffolk. Her served as a Page of Honour at the coronation of Charles II of England on 23 April 1661 and became a member of the Inner Temple on 4 November of that same year.
On 23 December 1662, he married Lady Elizabeth Wriothesley (the third daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Wriothesley, 4th Earl of Southampton) and they had two children:
In 1668, he inherited his father's titles and estate. On his own death in 1670, lacking male heirs, his titles became extinct and his estate passed to his only daughter, Elizabeth.
Notes The 11th Earl had a son who died in infancy. With that child, the Percys came to an end, for the second time in their long history. All that was left was one daughter, the Lady Elizabeth Percy, who became the loneliest and richest heiress in the country when her father died in 1670, at the age of twenty-five.
