Brooke, perhaps I misunderstood your posting but the current 7th
Baronet, the young James Geoffrey you mention, was the son of the late
Sir Edward Bates whose death is noted above and the grandson of the
5th Baronet, Sir Geoffrey Bates (1921-2005). The baronetcy passed in a
direct line.
The 7th Bart is the son of the 6th Barts younger deceased
brother......
