Gardiner baronets
The Gardiner Baronetcy, of Roche Court in the County of Southampton, was a title in the Baronetage of England. It was created on 24 December 1660 for Sir William Gardiner, Member of Parliament for Wigan. The second Baronet was a Commissioner of the Stamp Office from 1713 until 1739.[1] The title became extinct on the death of the third Baronet in 1779. The late Baronet left his estates to his cousin John Whalley, of Tackley, Oxfordshire, who assumed the additional surname of Gardiner and was created a baronet, of Roche Court in the County of Southampton, in 1783. See Whalley-Smythe-Gardiner baronets for further history of this title.
