[edit] Baron or Baronet?

The page name and the opening sentence of this article suggest that Hercules Robinson was a Baron, whereas subsequent text mentions, over two places, that he was actually made a Baronet. Which one is true? Anyone can verify?

The peerage doesn't become extinct until 1933 so there must have been at least one heir who succeeded. Alci12 16:33, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
