Fludyer baronets

The Fludyer Baronetcy, of The City of London, was a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain.[2] It was created on 14 November 1759 for the merchant, banker and politician Sir Samuel Fludyer, with remainder in default of male issue of his own to his brother Thomas Fludyer and his issue male. The second Baronet was Member of Parliament for Aldborough. The title became extinct on the death of the fifth Baronet in 1922.
