Thorold Baronets

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There have been four Baronetcies created for members of the Thorold (pronounced "Thurrald") family of Lincolnshire, two in the Baronetage of England and two in the Baronetage of Great Britain. One creation is extant as of 2008.

The Thorold Baronetcy, of Marston in the County of Lincoln, was created in the Baronetage of England on 24 August 1642 for William Thorold. He fought as a Royalist in the Civil War and represented Grantham in the House of Commons after the Restoration. The fourth Baronet sat as Member of Parliament for Grantham and Lincolnshire. The ninth Baronet was Member of Parliament for Lincolnshire. The tenth Baronet was a noted book collector. The twelfth Baronet represented Grantham in Parliament. The fifteenth Baronet was a Captain in the Royal Navy and leader of the Lincolnshire County Council. As of 13 June 2007 the presumed sixteenth and present Baronet has not successfully proven his succession to the title and is therefore not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage, with the baronetcy considered dormant since 1999.

The Right Reverend Anthony Wilson Thorold, son of Reverend Edward Thorold, fourth son of the ninth Baronet, was Bishop of Rochester and Bishop of Winchester.

The Thorold Baronetcy, of Hough-on-the-Hill in the County of Lincoln, was created in the Baronetage of England on 14 June 1644 for Robert Thorold. The title became extinct on the death of the third Baronet in 1706.

The Thorold Baronetcy, of Harmeston in the County of Lincoln, was created in the Baronetage of Great Britain on 9 September 1709 for George Thorold. The title became extinct on the death of the second Baronet in 1738.

The Thorold Baronetcy, of Harmeston in the County of Lincoln, was created in the Baronetage of Great Britain on 24 March 1741 for Nathaniel Thorold. The title became extinct on his death in 1764.
