Edge baronets

The Edge Baronetcy, of Ribble Lodge in Lytham St Annes in the County Palatine of Lancaster, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.[1] It was created on 9 June 1937 for the Liberal politician Sir William Edge. He represented Bolton and Bosworth in the House of Commons. The presumed third Baronet does not use his title. Also, as of 2007 he has not successfully proven his succession to the baronetcy, and is therefore not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage, with the baronetcy considered dormant.
