The Samuelson baronetcy, of Bodicote in Banbury in the County of Oxford, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 29 July 1884 for Bernhard Samuelson, a businessman, Member of Parliament for Banbury in 1859 and from 1865 to 1885, continuing in the single-member Banbury division of Oxfordshire from 1885 to 1895. He was a pioneer of technical education, and the baronetcy was conferred on him for his services in that field.[1]
The 2nd Baronet represented Cheltenham from 1868 to 1874, and then Frome from 1876 to 1885, in the House of Commons.[1]
