Milnes baronets

Sir Robert Milnes, 1st Baronet, by Joseph Wright of Derby

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. The title became extinct on the death of the second Baronet in 1841.

Richard Milnes, uncle of the first Baronet, was the great-great-grandfather of Richard Monckton Milnes, 1st Baron Houghton (see Marquess of Crewe for more information on this branch of the family).
