Henry Dymoke
Sir Henry Dymoke, 1st Baronet (1801 – 28 April 1865), was a British landowner and the hereditary King's Champion.
Dymoke was the son of Reverend John Dymoke.William IV. However, at the coronation of Queen Victoria this function was dispensed with. Probably as a way of compensation, Dymoke was made a baronet, of Scrivelsby in the County of Lincoln, in 1841 (the normal honour for a King's Champion was a knighthood).[1]
Dymoke died in April 1865 and the baronetcy became extinct.
