Otway Baronets

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There has been one Otway Baronetcy of Brighton, in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1831 to reward the service of Admiral Robert Otway in the Napoleonic Wars and off the Brazilian Coast. As his two eldest sons had predeceased him in Naval service, the baronetcy passed to his third son George Otway on his death in 1846. On George Otway's death the baronetcy passed to his brother, the fourth son of Admiral Robert Otway, the MP Arthur Otway. Following Arthur's death in 1912 the baronetcy became extinct.
