The Glyn baronetcy, of Gaunt's House in the County of Dorset, was created in the Baronetage of Great Britain on 22 November 1800 for Richard Carr Glyn. He was the fourth son of the 1st Baronet of the 1759 creation.[2]
Glyn was senior partner from 1789 of the family bank Glyn, Mills & Co.. He sat as Member of Parliament for St. Ives from 1796 to 1802. In 1798 he served as Lord Mayor of London.[3] Gaunt's House near Hinton Martell was built for him in 1809.[4]
The 4th Baronet succeeded to the Glyn baronetcy of Ewell in 1942, and the titles have remained united.[1]
