Nelson baronets

The Nelson Baronetcy, of Acton Park in Acton in the County of Denbigh, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 5 February 1912 for William Nelson, Chairman of Nelson Line Ltd, of Liverpool, and of the Nelson Steam Navigation Company. As of 2006 the presumed fourth holder of the title has not successfully proven his succession to the baronetcy and is consequently not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage, with the baronetcy considered dormant.
