Brown baronets of London (1699)

The Brown baronetcy, of London, was created in the Baronetage of England on 14 December 1699 for William Brown, a Scottish merchant in Danzig.

The 2nd Baronet appeared as Sir John Browne "of Kew-Green" in 1727; he sold his residence to Queen Caroline of Ansbach, and it formed part of Kew Palace. The 3rd Baronet lived in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and his given name is not known. The title is presumed to have become extinct on his death circa 1760.
