Marquis of Pombal (title)

Count of Oeiras (in Portuguese Conde de Oeiras) was a Portuguese title of nobility created by a royal decree, dated from July 15, 1759, by King Joseph I of Portugal, and granted to Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, head of the Portuguese government.

Later, through another royal decree dated from September 16, 1769, the same king upgraded the title to Marquis of Pombal (in Portuguese Marquês de Pombal).
