Carden baronets

There have been two baronetcies created for persons with the surname Carden, one in the Baronetage of Ireland and one in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. Both creations are extant as of 2010.

The Carden Baronetcy, of Templemore in the County of Tipperary,[1] was created in the Baronetage of Ireland on 31 August 1787 for John Carden, commander of the 30th Regiment of Light Dragoons,[2] which he had helped raise.[3] His son from his third marriage, the third Baronet (who succeeded his half-brother), fought at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. The sixth Baronet, Sir John Valentine Carden was a notable tank and vehicle designer. The family was originally from Cheshire, England, but settled at Templemore in County Tipperary around 1650. Admiral John Surman Carden was a member of another branch of this family.

The Carden Baronetcy, of Wimpole Street in the County of Middlesex and of Molesey in the County of Surrey,[4] was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 14 June 1887 for Robert Carden. He was Lord Mayor of London from 1857 to 1858 and also represented Gloucester and Barnstaple in the House of Commons. He was succeeded by his eldest son, the second Baronet. He was a Lieutenant-Colonel in the 5th Lancers and served as High Sheriff of Hampshire in 1891. His eldest son, the third Baronet, was a Major in the 1st Life Guards and also served as High Sheriff of Hampshire in 1922 and as a Deputy Lieutenant of Berkshire in 1936. He was succeeded by his son, the fourth Baronet. He was a Lieutenant-Colonel in the 17th/21st Lancers. As of 2019, the title is held by his only son.

gollark: No.
gollark: So |z+7| is distance to -7, and |z-1| is distance to 1.
gollark: You can think about this easily by considering where it would be zero.
gollark: Same with the -1 except 1 and not -7.
gollark: If you remember transformations of things at all, then the + 7 inside the || is equivalent to translating everything in the direction of negative real component by 7, so it is now the distance from the point (-7, 0) aka -7 instead.
