Corbet Baronets of Stoke Upon Tern (1627; First Creation)

The Corbet Baronetcy, of Stoke upon Tern in the County of Shropshire, was created in the Baronetage of England on 19 September 1627 for John Corbet, great-grandson of Sir Robert Corbet, High Sheriff of Shropshire, of Moreton Corbet. He subsequently represented Shropshire in the Long Parliament. The fourth Baronet also represented this constituency in the House of Commons while the fifth Baronet represented both Montgomery and Ludlow. The title became extinct on the death of the sixth Baronet in 1750. However, it was revived in 1786 for the latter's nephew (see below).
