Brown baronets of Westminster (1732)
The Brown baronetcy, of the City and Liberty of Westminster, was created in the Baronetage of Great Britain on 11 March 1732 for Robert Brown, an Irish merchant at Venice and Member of Parliament for Ilchester.[1] A special remainder was made, to his two brothers.[2]
Brown died in 1760 and the baronetcy devolved according to the special remainder to his nephew James, son of Colonel James Brown. On the death of the 3rd Baronet, the latter's son, the title became extinct in 1830.[2]
