Smith-Burges baronets
The Smith-Burges Baronetcy, of East Ham in the County of Essex, was a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 4 May 1793 for John Smith Burges, a Director of the Honourable East India Company. Born John Smith, he had assumed by Royal licence the additional surname of Burges in 1790, which was that of his father-in-law, Ynyr Burges, Secretary of the Honourable East India Company. Smith-Burges was childless and the title became extinct on his death in 1803.

gollark: > Patent terms are set by statute. Currently, the term of a new patent is 20 years from the date on which the application for the patent was filed in the United States. Many other factors can affect the duration of a patent.
gollark: Again, I'm pretty sure that is not how patents work.
