Salusbury Baronets

There have been two baronetcies created for the Salusbury family.

The Baronetcy of Salusbury of Lleweni was created in 1619 for Sir Henry Salusbury in the Baronetage of England. The second Baronet sat in the English House of Commons representing Denbighshire in 1640. The fourth Baronet represented Denbigh 1661-84.

The family also has the distinction of having had William Shakespeare dedicate a major poem, The Phoenix and the Turtle, to the loving relationship that the father of the first baronet had with his wife. Their seat was located at Lleweni Hall in Tremeirchion, Wales. The last family member connected to the Lleweni baronetcy was Hester Piozzi, who was the daughter of the fourth and last baronet. The estate passed through her marriage to Sir Robert Cotton.

The Baronetcy of Salusbury of Llanwern Monmouthshire was created on 4 May 1795 for Robert Salusbury, Member of Parliament forMonmouthshire 1792-1796 and Brecon 1796-1812. It was extinct on the death of the third Baronet.
