The style given to the widow of a peer or
baronet. She may take the style of `Dowager
Countess of Blankshire' (so as not to be
confused with the wife of the current holder
of the title); alternatively she may take the
style of `Mary, Countess of Blankshire'
(although this is the style also used by
divorced wives of peers).
