The Elton Baronetcy, of Bristol, is a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 31 October 1717 for Abraham Elton, Mayor of and Member of Parliament for Bristol from 1722 to 1727. The second Baronet was also Mayor of Bristol and represented Taunton and Bristol (1727–1742) in the House of Commons. The seventh Baronet sat as Liberal Member of Parliament for Bath. The eighth Baronet was High Sheriff of Somerset in 1895. The tenth Baronet was a pioneer of the British documentary film industry.
