Farmer baronets

The Farmer Baronetcy, of Mount Pleasant in the County of Sussex, was a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain.[1] It was created on 19 January 1780 for George Farmer, in honour of his late father, Captain George Farmer, who was killed when commanding HMS Quebec in a naval battle with superior French forces off Ushant. The title became extinct on the death of the fifth Baronet in 1913.
