Sherston-Baker baronets

The Baker, later Sherston-Baker Baronetcy, of Dunstable House in Richmond in the County of Surrey, is a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 14 May 1796 for Robert Baker of the Surrey Fencible Cavalry, in recognition of his raising and maintaining a cavalry regiment of 500 men styled "The Richmond Rangers". He had married in 1783 Dinah Hayley, daughter of George Hayley.

He was succeeded by his son, the 2nd Baronet, a vice-admiral in the Royal Navy. The 4th Baronet was Recorder of Helston and of Barnstaple and Bideford and a County Court judge. The 5th Baronet assumed by deed poll the additional surname of Sherston in 1923.

The heir apparent is the current holder's son David George Arbuthnot Sherston-Baker (born 1992).
