Bacon baronets of Mildenhall (1627)

The Bacon baronetcy, of Mildenhall in the County of Suffolk, was created in the Baronetage of England on 29 July 1627 for Butts Bacon, seventh son of the 1st Baronet of the 1611 creation.

His great-grandson (the title having descended from father to son), Edmund, the 4th Baronet, represented Orford in Parliament. He was succeeded by his eldest son, Edmund, the 5th Baronet. He was Member of Parliament for Thetford. His only son, Edmund, the 6th Baronet, died unmarried at an early age in 1750. He was succeeded by his uncle, Henry, the 7th Baronet. He also died unmarried and was succeeded by his younger brother, Richard, the 8th Baronet. In 1755 he succeeded his third cousin once removed as 8th Baronet of Redgrave.
