LIST OF SEIGNEURS OF SARK

The 'Seigneur of Sark' is the head of the feudal government of the Isle of Sark. "Seigneur" is the French word for "lord". A female head is called the 'Dame of Sark'.
The Seigneur's office is hereditary. With permission of the Queen it may also be sold. The Seigneur has a suspensive veto power and the right to appoint most of the island's officers. See more under Sark Politics. The residents of Sark have voted to abolish the office, which will probably occur within the next few months.^[1]
