Fleetwood Baronets

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There have been two Baronetcies created for descendants of the old Lancashire family of Fleetwood viz:-

The Baronetcy of Fleetwood of Calwich was created in the Baronetage of England by James I on 19 June 1611 for Richard Fleetwood of Calwich Abbey, Ellastone, Staffordshire, who was High Sheriff of Staffordshire in 1614 and who built the Grade I listed Wootton Lodge at Ellastone.

The Baronetcy of Fleetwood of Rossall Hall was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom in 1838 for Peter Hesketh-Fleetwood of Rossall Hall, politician and landowner who created the town of Fleetwood.
