Very nice, but a minor nit.
It would be Baron Roberto Chang, OEG (or whatever order is appropriate)
or Roberto, Baron Placename. In causal speech Lord Chang would also be
an acceptable form of address. As a general rule, you go with the
highest honor unless it has been established beforehand that the noble
wishes to scale back his honors. So the Baron could ask that he be
introduced at a gathering as "Sir Roberto Chang, OEG" which would signal
that he is there as a simple knight, not as a peer. It would a major
faux pas to treat him as a baron in that case.
Doug, who really needs to set up his signatures.
