::summary Set index for Rowley baronets ::

There have been three baronetcies created for members of the Rowley family, one in the Baronetage of Great Britain and two in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. Two of the creations are extant as of .

The Rowley Baronetcy, of the Navy, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 2 November 1813 for the Anglo-Irish naval commander Sir Josias Rowley. He was the nephew of the first Baronet of the 1786 creation. Rowley never married and the title became extinct on his death in 1842.

The Rowley Baronetcy, of Hill House in the County of Berkshire, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 21 March 1836 for the naval commander Admiral Charles Rowley. He was the fourth son of the first Baronet of the 1786 creation. The seventh Baronet established his claim to the 1786 baronetcy in 2002. The eighth Baronet, Sir Richard Rowley, is a member of the executive committee of the Standing Council of the Baronetage.

The heir apparent to both baronetcies is Joshua Andrew Rowley (born 1989), eldest son of the 9th/8th Baronet.

The senior baronetcy is Rowley of Tendring Hall and takes that position in the order of precedence.

Should the male line of the 1st Baronet Rowley of Hill House become extinct, both Baronetcies will become extinct as no other male lines are in remainder to the 1st Baronet Rowley of Tendring Hall.
