The Preston baronetcy, of Furness in the County of Lancaster, was created in the Baronetage of England on 1 April 1644 for George Preston, son of John Preston (died c.1642) of Gray's Inn, and a Royalist of the English Civil War. He was descended from the "de Preston" family which during the reign of King Henry II (1154–1189) was seated at Preston Richard and Preston Patrick in Westmorland.
