Baron Caryll of Durford (or Dunford) of Harting in West Sussex is a title in the Jacobite Peerage of England created by the dethroned King James II for John Caryll, poet, dramatist and diplomat, with apparently a special remainder to the issue male of his brothers.
A friend of Alexander Pope, Caryll was the son of Richard Caryll (1635–1701), of West Grinstead, Sussex, and Frances (c.1644–1704), daughter of Sir Henry Bedingfield, and nephew and heir of John Caryll, Jacobite first Baron Caryll of Durford.
It was based on an actual incident recounted by Pope's friend, John Caryll.
Smith was the son of Charles Smyth, 1st Viscount Carrington, by his wife Elizabeth Caryll, daughter of Sir John Caryll, of South Harting, Sussex.
