  The Frederick Baronetcy, of Burwood House in the County of Surrey, is a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 10 June 1723 for John Frederick of Burwood House in the southern half of Walton-on-Thames which later became Hersham.
  
  He was the grandson of the wealthy merchant Sir John Frederick (b.1601) Lord Mayor of London in 1662 and Member of Parliament for Dartmouth and the City of London, president of Christ's Hospital rebuilding its hall after the Fire of London by expending £5,000 and founding its mathematical school. He died in 1685 leaving £42,000 (£170,000,000 in 2015 money).
  
  In the late 18th century the fourth Baronet represented Shoreham and West Looe in the House of Commons while the fifth Baronet represented Newport (Cornwall), Christchurch and Surrey. The seventh Baronet was High Sheriff of Hampshire in 1889 and the eighth was High Sheriff of Northamptonshire in 1934.
  
  The family seat fell into the female line and was rebuilt circa 1810 to become Burwood Park School on Manor Park Drive as it replaced a manor house. Its outlying 1.5-square-kilometre (370-acre)-estate between Walton on Thames railway station (Sir Richard's Bridge) and St George's Hill, Burwood Park, was sold by the sixth baronet's purchaser's daughters in the late 19th century to Edward Guinness, 1st Earl of Iveagh who converted it into the Burwood Park gated residential estate. The current baronet lives in Batcombe, Somerset.
  
  Marescoe Frederick, younger brother of the fourth Baronet, was a major-general in the British Army. His great-great-grandson, John Cromwell Frederick (1920–1974), was a captain in the Royal Navy. Another descendant was the courtier Charles Arthur Frederick.
