There have been six baronetcies created for members of the Corbet family, four in the Baronetage of England, one in the Baronetage of Great Britain and one in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. All creations are extinct. The recipients were descendants of the ancient Norman family of Corbet which held substantial estates in Shropshire including Wattlesborough, Caus Castle, Moreton Corbet Castle and Acton Reynald Hall. ==Corbet baronets, of Sprowston (1623)== The Corbet Baronetcy, of Sprowston in the County of Norfolk, was created in the Baronetage of England on 4 July 1623 for John Corbet, of Sprowston, grandson of Sir Miles Corbet, Kt, of Moreton Corbet and son of Sir Thomas Corbet, Kt, High Sheriff of Norfolk in 1612. He sat as Member of Parliament for Norfolk and Yarmouth. He was the elder brother of the regicide Miles Corbet.〔Sarah Barber, ''Corbett, Miles (1594/5–1662)'', Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004〕 The title became extinct on the death of the third Baronet in 1661.〔( George Edward Cokayne ''Complete Baronetage Volume 1'' 1900 )〕 *Sir John Corbet, 1st Baronet (1591–1628) *Sir John Corbet, 2nd Baronet (died before 1649) *Sir Thomas Corbet, 3rd Baronet (died 1661) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Corbet baronets」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
