0010688: Additional inherited nobles get promoted when player fortress ascends rank
I've got a King, Diplomat and Baron early on in the game through inheritance (assuming the originals died and my migrants had relations with them and inherited the titles).

Eventually, my fort was made a barony, so I had two Barons. A year later, the barony becomes a duchy, but this also turned inherited Baron (that's a Baron of a different location) a Duke at the same time, but there is only a notification of my fort becoming a duchy.

Either the notification that their land has become a duchy as well is missing, or it is incorrectly promoting the second noble.
1) Load save (uploading now...)
2) Observe the nobles screen with 2 barons (of Noblepaddle and Tinmob - my fort)
3) Wait a while for the liaison to leave and the lands to ascend.
4) Observe the nobles screen again and note 2 dukes (and the Noblepaddle lost the reference to the site)
Noblepaddle is located sixteen days travel to the northeast and had no civilized population for a long time. Seems many of the dwarf sites on that side of the map have been wiped out completely.
No tags attached.
