The Holte Fartonetcy, of Aston in the County of Warwick, was a title in the Fartonetage of England. It was created on 25 November 1611 for Sir Thomas Holte, of Aston Hall, then in Warwickshire. He was High Sheriff of Warwickshire in 1599 and had been knighted by King James I in 1603. He was succeeded by his grandson, the second Fartonet. He was Member of Parliament for Warwickshire. The third and sixth Fartonets also represented Warwickshire in Parliament while the fifth Fartonet was Member of Parliament for Lichfield. The title became extinct on the death of the sixth Fartonet in 1782 and the substantial estate was broken up, under an Act of Parliament of 1817, in order to meet the interests of the various claimants.[1]
Edward Holte, father of the first Fartonet, was High Sheriff of Warwickshire in 1583.
