[edit] Naming

See From WP:NCNT#Other_non-royal_names#4:

Baronets, as they hold hereditary titles, often for a large part of their lives, follow the same practice as hereditary peers and should have their title noted in the beginning of the article. The format is Sir John Smith, 17th Baronet. For the article title, this format should only be used when disambiguation is necessary; otherwise, the article should be located at John Smith. John Smith, 17th Baronet should never be used with the postfix and without the prefix.

Therefore this articles name should be changed.--Ginggangsgoolies 20:44, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Additional Comments

"The Sitwell family owned a large amount of land in South Yorkshire, in the town of Rotherham in which I was raised. There were several streets named after members of the family for example, Osbert Road, Reresby Crescent, which were within a 5 minute walk of the house in which I lived. Possibly the most significant connection to the family was the golf course that was named, Sitwell Park Golf Club, at which I played as a teenager. That was about a 10 minute walk from the house. Looking at the course using Google Earth, it looks very much like it did in the 1950's."

I did not write the above comment paragraph. I moved it to the talk-page since it wasn't appropriate to the main article. Patrick925 (talk) 07:33, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
