Walsham baronets

The Walsham Baronetcy, of Knill Court in the County of Hereford, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.[1] It was created on 30 September 1831 for John James Walsham. He received the baronetcy as the eldest co-heir and representative of Sir Thomas Morgan, 1st Baronet (a title which had become extinct on the death of the fourth Baronet in 1767; see Morgan baronets, of Llangatock). The second Baronet was Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to China from 1885 to 1892 and to Romania from 1892 to 1893. The fourth Baronet was a Rear-Admiral in the Royal Navy. There is no heir to the baronetcy.
