Bickerton baronets
The Bickerton Baronetcy, of Upwood in the County of Huntingdon, was a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain.[1] It was created on 29 May 1778 for Sir Richard Bickerton, a successful British naval commander who later rose to the rank of rear admiral and represented Rochester in the British House of Commons. His son, Sir Richard Bickerton, 2nd Baronet, also became a Royal Navy officer before succeeding to the baronetcy in 1792. He became a Lord of the Admiralty, represented Poole in the House of Commons, and rose to the rank of admiral. The baronetcy became extinct on his death in 1832.

gollark: Maybe I should just do stacks, those are fun.
gollark: Yaaay!
gollark: I've just realized that if I have a register which always contains 0, some of my instructions just become special cases of other instructions, which is quite neat.
gollark: SPARC sounds very strange.
