Lake baronets

[1] Bibye Lake put his claim to the Earl of Oxford who decided that the grant had been lost.

However, in line with what would have happened, if the warrant had been sealed, a baronetcy was conferred on Sir Edward's great-nephew and heir, Bibye Lake, and Anne, Queen of Great Britain, had a new patent issued.

[1][2] The baronetcy was passed onto the eldest son for many generations, and this came to an end when Atwell King Lake, the 6th baronet, died on 15 July 1897 without having had children.

[3] James Samuel Lake, the 5th baronet, had two younger brothers whose descendants would inherit the baronetcy: Capt.

The heir presumptive to the title is the present baronet's fourth cousin Andrew Winter Lake (born 1962).
