The Broughton, later Broughton-Delves, later Broughton Baronetcy, of Broughton in the County of Stafford, is a title in the Baronetage of England. It was created on 10 March 1661 for Sir Brian Broughton, of Broughton Hall, near Eccleshall, Staffordshire, High Sheriff of Staffordshire from 1660 to 1661 and the member of an ancient Staffordshire family. ==History〔''The Baronetage of England, Containing a Genealogical and Historical Account of all Baronets now existing'' Vol II E Kimber and R Johnson (1771). Pedigree of Broughton. Google Books〕== The Broughtons are descended from the ancient Vernon family and in particular from Richard Vernon, fourth son of the 3rd medieval Baron Vernon of Shipbrook, Cheshire. Adam, his son, was of Napton, Warwickshire. Adams's grandson Roger acquired the estate at Broughton, Staffordshire, from which the surname derives, in the 13th century. The first Baronet was the son of Thomas Broughton (died 1648) who was an ardent Royalist and supporter of Charles I and who was obliged to compound at a cost of £3200, for the return of his estates following sequestration by the Parliament at the conclusion of the Civil War. His son was honoured with the baronetcy at the Restoration of Charles II. As of 13 June 2007 the presumed thirteenth and present Baronet, David Delves Broughton, has not proven his succession and is therefore not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage; the baronetcy has been dormant since 1993. For more information, follow this (link. ) David Delves Broughton is the great-great-grandson of Reverend Sir Thomas Delves Broughton, second son of the eighth Baronet.〔No Sir! You are not a Baronet yet, William Cash, ''Sunday Telegraph'', 6 July 2003〕 The family seat is Doddington Park, near Nantwich, Cheshire. It remains in the family of Sir Evelyn Delves Broughton, 12th Baronet. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Broughton baronets」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
