From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The David Baronetcy, of Bombay, was a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 12 December 1911 for the Baghdadi Jewish businessman Sassoon David.[1] He was succeeded by his son, Percival, the second Baronet, who became an important collector of Chinese porcelain. The title became extinct on the latter's death in 1964.
