Pickthorn baronets
The Pickthorn Baronetcy, of Orford in the County of Suffolk, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 31 January 1959 for the Conservative Party politician Kenneth Pickthorn.[1] A former Master of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, he was Member of Parliament for Cambridge University from 1935 to 1950, and for Carlton from 1950 to 1966. As of 2010 the title is held by his grandson, the third Baronet James Pickthorn, who succeeded his father, Charles Pickthorn, in 1995. James's eldest son William Pickthorn (born 1998) is the heir to the Pickthorn Baronetcy.
