Clifford baronets

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There have been two baronetcies created for a person with the surname Clifford.

The Clifford Baronetcy, of the Navy,[1] was created for Augustus William James Clifford, the illegitimate son of the 5th Duke of Devonshire (as son of the 6th Baroness Clifford and himself the 7th one) on 4 August 1838 in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It has become extinct at the death of the 4th Baronet on 22 November 1895.

The Clifford Baronetcy, of Flaxbourne in New Zealand[2] was created for Charles Clifford, a grandnephew of Hugh Clifford, 4th Baron Clifford of Chudleigh (and nephew of Sir Thomas Clifford-Constable, Bt) on 16 July 1887 in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. As of 2020, the baronetcy is held by the 7th Baronet.
