Dugdale Baronets

Dugdale Baronets

There have been two Baronetcies created for persons with the surname Dugdale, both in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.

The Dugdale Baronetcy, of Merevale and Blyth in the County of Warwick, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 17 July 1936 for William Francis Stratford Dugdale. He was a descendant of the famous antiquary Sir William Dugdale. Richard Geast, maternal nephew of John Dugdale of Blyth, inherited the Dugdale family seat of Blyth Hall and assumed by Royal license the surname of Dugdale in lieu of Geast in 1799. His wife Penelope Bate was the eldest daughter and co-heir of Francis Stratford of Merevale Hall, Warwickshire, which was inherited by their son Dugdale Stratford Dugdale, the great-grandfather of the first Baronet.

The current Dugdale Baronet is Sir William Stratford Dugdale who has held the position since 1965 and is best known for being the former chairman of Aston Villa Football Club.

The family seat is Merevale Hall, Merevale, Warwickshire.

The Dugdale Baronetcy, of Crathorne in the North Riding of the County of York, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 31 January 1945 for Thomas Dugdale. For more information on this creation, see the Baron Crathorne.
