The **Dutton Baronetcy**, of Sherborne in the county of Dorset, was a title in the [Baronetage of England](/source/Baronetage_of_England). It was created on 22 June 1678 for [Ralph Dutton](/source/Sir_Ralph_Dutton,_1st_Baronet), subsequently [Member of Parliament](/source/Member_of_Parliament) for [Gloucestershire](/source/Gloucestershire_(UK_Parliament_constituency)).[1] His son, the second Baronet, also represented Gloucestershire in Parliament. The title became extinct on his death in 1743.[2]

The late Baronet left his estates to his nephew James Naper, of Loughcrew, [County Meath](/source/County_Meath), eldest son of James Naper by Anne Dutton, daughter of Sir Ralph Dutton, 1st Baronet.[2] James Naper assumed by Royal licence the surname of Dutton in lieu of his patronymic in accordance with his uncle's will. His eldest son [James Dutton](/source/James_Dutton,_1st_Baron_Sherborne) was elevated to the peerage as [Baron Sherborne](/source/Baron_Sherborne) in 1784.
