Milnes baronets
Extinct baronetcy in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Milnes baronetcy, of Gauley in the County of Leicester, was a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 21 March 1801 for the colonial governor Robert Milnes.[1] The title became extinct on the death of the invalid second Baronet in 1839, the only surviving son, "after many years in delicate and precarious health" residing at Sydling.[2]
Richard Milnes, uncle of the first Baronet, was the great-great-grandfather of Richard Monckton Milnes, 1st Baron Houghton.[4]
