Gifford baronets

There have been two baronetcies created for persons with the surname Gifford, one in the Baronetage of England and one in the Baronetage of Ireland. Both creations are extinct.

The Gifford Baronetcy, of Burstall in the County of Leicester, was created in the Baronetage of England on 21 November 1660 for Henry Gifford. The title became extinct on the death of the second Baronet in 1736.

The Gifford Baronetcy, of Castle Jordan in the County of Meath, was created in the Baronetage of Ireland on 4 March 1661 for Thomas Gifford. The title became extinct on his death in 1662. However he had male heirs and Castle Jordan remained in the Gifford family until the nineteenth century.
