The
Vyvyan Baronetcy, of Trelowarren in the County of Cornwall, is a title in the
Baronetage of England. It was created on

Member of Parliament for
Penrhyn,
Tregony and
St Mawes and
Master of the Mint. The second Baronet represented St Mawes and
Helston in the
House of Commons. The third Baronet was Member of Parliament for

Cornwall and a prominent
Jacobite. The eighth Baronet sat as
Conservative Member of Parliament for Cornwall,
Okehampton,
Bristol and Helston. The tenth Baronet was a
Colonel in the
