From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Eckstein Baronetcy, of Fairwarp in the County of Sussex, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.[1] It was created on 24 April 1929 for the German-born, a sometime South African gold mine developer Frederich Eckstein, for his services to the Sudan as chairman of the Sudan Plantations Syndicate.[2] The baronetcy was extinct on the death of the second baronet.[3]
Hermann Eckstein, brother of the first Baronet, was a mining magnate and banker.[4]
