Cayley baronets
The Cayley Baronetcy, of Brompton in the County of York, is a title in the Baronetage of England. It was created on 26 April 1661 for William Cayley, who had earlier fought as a Royalist in the Civil War. His great-great-great-grandson, the sixth Baronet, was a pioneer of aeronautical engineering and also represented Scarborough in the House of Commons. The baronetcy descended in the direct line until the death of his great-great-grandson, the tenth Baronet, in 1967. The late Baronet was succeeded by his second cousin once removed, the eleventh and present holder of the title. He is the great-grandson of Digby Cayley, second son of the seventh Baronet.
