The Bayley baronets of Updown House in the County of Kent, later Laurie baronetcy of Bedford Square in the County of Middlesex, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 15 March 1834 for John Bayley, a Judge of the Queen's Bench, Baron of the Exchequer and legal writer.[1][3]

The 3rd Baronet assumed by Royal licence the surname of Laurie of Maxwelton in lieu of his patronymic in 1886.[4] The 4th Baronet was a Lieutenant-colonel in the King's Own Scottish Borderers and fought in the Second Boer War.[5] The 6th Baronet was a Major-General and commanded the Seaforth Highlanders.[6]
