From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Fowke Baronetcy, of Lowesby in the County of Leicester, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.[2] It was created on 7 February 1814 for Frederick Gustavus Fowke of Lowesby Hall, Lowesby, near Leicester. He was the son of Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Fowke, Groom of the Bedchamber to the Duke of Cumberland. His grandfather was Lieutenant-General Thomas Fowke, Governor of Gibraltar.[3] The family surname is pronounced "Foke".
