The Parliamentary Members’ Names Information System indicates that the 4th Baron Kershaw (born 12 May 1936, succeeded his father 1962) died on 4 January. He is succeeded by his son the Hon. John Charles Edward Kershaw, born 23 December 1971.
The Wikipedia page for the barony (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baron_Kershaw) was updated on 5 January by "Johncekershaw", evidently the new peer.

The Wikipedia entry contains a contradiction."As of 2010 the title is held by the fifth Baron who inherited in 2026. "!
