The Lighton Baronetcy, of Merville in Dublin, is a title in the Baronetage of Ireland. It was created on 1 March 1791 for the Dublin-based banker and politician Thomas Lighton. Sir Thomas was an Ulsterman, being a native of Strabane in the west of County Tyrone. After falling on hard times, he sought work as a private and interpreter in the East India Company in India. In the early 1790s he had No. 22 St. Stephen's Green North built as his Dublin residence. This house is now The Cliff Townhouse,
