The Wyvill Baronetcy, of Constable Burton in the County of York, was a title in the Baronetage of England. It was created on 25 November 1611 for Marmaduke Wyvill, the former Member of Parliament for Richmond. The fifth and sixth Baronets also represented Richmond in the House of Commons. The title became dormant on the death of the seventh Baronet in 1774.[1]
