Noble baronets

There have been three baronetcies created for persons with the surname Noble, all in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.

The Noble Baronetcy, of Ardmore and Ardardan Noble in Cardross in the County of Dunbarton, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 24 July 1902 for the Scottish physicist and businessman Andrew Noble.[1] The second Baronet was High Sheriff of Northumberland in 1918.

The Noble Baronetcy, of West Denton Hall in the County of Northumberland, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 24 June 1921. For more information on this creation, see Baron Kirkley.

The Noble Baronetcy, of Ardkinglas, and Eilean Iarmain in the County of Argyll, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 26 July 1923 for the businessman John Noble.[2] He was the third son of the first Baronet of the 1902 creation. As of 2011 the presumed fourth and present Baronet is not enrolled on the Official Roll of the Baronetage.

The Conservative politician Michael Noble, Baron Glenkinglas, was the youngest son of the first Baronet of the 1923 creation.
