The Robinson Baronetcy, of Toronto in Canada, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 21 September 1854 for the Canadian lawyer and politician John Robinson.

Background

The 1st baronet was a descendant of Christopher Robinson, originally of Cleasby, Yorkshire. Christopher Robinson emigrated to Virginia in 1670; he was the elder brother of The Right Reverend John Robinson, Bishop of Bristol and Bishop of London.
