The Currie Baronetcy is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 11 January 1847 for Frederick Currie, Foreign Secretary to the Indian Government and a member of the Supreme Council of India. He was a grandson of William Currie (1721-1781), nephew of William Currie (1756-1829), who was Member of Parliament for Upper Gatton and Winchelsea, and the brother of Vice-Admiral Mark John Currie.
Several other members of the family may also be mentioned. Henry Currie, cousin of the first Baronet, was Member of Parliament for Guildford. Isaac Currie, uncle of the first Baronet, was the father of Raikes Currie, Member of Parliament for Northampton, who was the father of diplomat Philip Currie, 1st Baron Currie. Fendall Currie, sixth son of the first Baronet, was a Major-General in the Army.
The presumed sixth Baronet never successfully proved his succession and was never on the Official Roll of the Baronetage. As of 2007 the presumed seventh and present Baronet has not successfully proven his succession and is therefore not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage, with the baronetcy considered dormant since 1978.
