# Roche baronets

There have been two baronetcies created for persons with the surname Roche, once in the baronetage of Ireland and once in the baronetage of the United Kingdom. One creation is extant as of 2010.

The Roche Baronetcy, of Fermoy in the County of Cork, was created on 30 November 1782 for the soldier and politician Sir Boyle Roche. He was childless and the title became extinct on his death in 1807.

The Roche Baronetcy, of Carass in Limerick, was created in the baronetage of the United Kingdom on 8 August 1838 for David Roche, Member of Parliament for Limerick. The second baronet was vice-lieutenant and high sheriff of County Limerick. The third baronet was a deputy lieutenant of County Carlow. The fourth baronet was a naval commander.
