Archdale baronets

The Archdale Baronetcy, of Riversdale in the County of Fermanagh, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.^[1] It was created on 25 June 1928 for the Northern Irish politician Edward Archdale. The second Baronet was a vice-admiral in the Royal Navy. The third Baronet was a captain in the Royal Navy. As of 30 June 2017^[update] the present holder of the baronetcy has not successfully proven his succession to the Archdale baronetcy and is therefore not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage. However, the case is under review by the Registrar of the Baronetage.^[2]

The family seat was Riversdale House, near Ballycassidy, County Fermanagh.
