Hardy baronets

There have been two baronetcies created for bearers of this surname, both in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.

The Hardy Baronetcy, of the Navy, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 4 February 1806 for the prominent naval commander Vice Admiral Thomas Hardy.

The Hardy Baronetcy, of Dunstall Hall in the County of Stafford, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 23 February 1876 for the Conservative politician John Hardy,[2] who had previously represented Midhurst, Dartmouth and Warwickshire South in the House of Commons.

He was the son of John Hardy and the elder brother of the Conservative politician Gathorne Gathorne-Hardy, 1st Earl of Cranbrook.

The title became extinct on the death without a male heir of Sir Richard Hardy, 5th Baronet in 2017.
