The Robinson Baronetcy, of Toronto in Canada, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 21 September 1854 for the Canadian lawyer and politician John Robinson.
Background[edit]
The 1st baronet was a descendant of Christopher Robinson, originally of Cleasby, Yorkshire. Christopher Robinson emigrated to Virginia in 1670; he was the elder brother of The Right Reverend John Robinson, Bishop of Bristol and Bishop of London.
