Sir Walter Halsey, 2nd Baronet

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I don't see any grounds for notability here beyond his hereditary baronetcy which in itself is not sufficient grounds for notability. A baronet is the lowest inherited titled British order, and while hereditary Barons, Viscounts, Earls, Marquesses and Dukes were entitled to sit in the House of Lords and pass judgement on British Law prior to the House of Lords Act 1999, hereditary baronets have never had the automatic right to sit in the upper House of Lords, and thus are constitutionally insignificant.

 * Keep: Did serve as deputy (lord) lieutenant, justice of the peace; was created OBE and had a lieutenant colonelcy. Plus, his rank in an ongoing honors system was high, if not a peer. Dhtwiki (talk) 22:30, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
