Gramatically should this not actually be "Lords High Admiral" and not "Lord High Admirals" similary to offices such as "Lieutenants Governor" or "Governors General"? Lord is the noun, High Admiral is the adjectival qualifer of what sort of Lord we're discussing. I'm fairly certain this is the convention, at least in CE.

Actually, Admiral is the noun. Lord is an adjective, in this case. john k 04:53, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
ACTUALLY, the correct plural is "Lords High Admirals" (cf. the current designation of "Lords Commissioners" [1]). Cousteau69 ( talk) 11:18, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

List of Lords High Admirals and First Lords of the Admiralty → List of Lord High Admirals and First Lords of the Admiralty — "Lord" and "High" are adjectives, "Admiral" is the noun. Similarly "Lord High Chancellors", not "Lords High Chancellors". Opera hat ( talk) 18:34, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi I have been updating sources for First Lord of the Admiralty in my draft here: User:Navops47/sandbox2. There are discrepancies with articles created and this Debrett's listing here: https://books.google.lk/books?id=v6u5S-H7BCUC&pg=PA88&dq=Daniel+Finch,+8th+Earl+of+Winchilsea+First+Lord+of+the+Admiralty&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiolIrRg8bSAhVIqI8KHWpTBCEQ6AEIHDAB#v=onepage&q=Daniel%20Finch%2C%208th%20Earl%20of%20Winchilsea%20First%20Lord%20of%20the%20Admiralty&f=false
According to listing on page 88 its states that Daniel Finch, 2nd Earl of Nottingham, , 7th Earl of Winchilsea was First Lord of the Admiralty in 1741 and again in 1757, however in the First Lord of the Admiralty it lists the 8th Earl of Winchilsea. I am no expert but when reading the Debrett's section it appears that this article Thomas Finch, 2nd Earl of Winchilsea eldest son of the Elizabeth Finch, 1st Countess of Winchilsea has been named wrong he was the 1st Earl [2] which now affects all succeeding articles requesting further investigation from someone more qualified to double check.-- Navops47 ( talk) 05:09, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
Additional update: Daniel Finch 7th Earl Winchilsea listed in 1757 as First Lord of the Admiralty here: https://books.google.lk/books?id=Y5WCAwAAQBAJ&pg=PR8&dq=John+Montagu,+4th+Earl+of+Sandwich+First+Lord+of+the+Admiralty&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjetcTlj8bSAhVFsY8KHU83BL44ChDoAQgbMAE#v=onepage&q=John%20Montagu%2C%204th%20Earl%20of%20Sandwich%20First%20Lord%20of%20the%20Admiralty&f=false the listing in the First Lord article for 1757 states 8th Earl Winchilsea.-- Navops47 ( talk) 05:09, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
