Sir Jeremy Child, 3rd Baronet 1944-2022

 Sir (Coles John) Jeremy Child, 3rd Baronet, the actor, died 7 March, 2022. He was 77.

He was born 20 September, 1944, the only son of Sir Coles John Child, 2nd Baronet (1906-71), and his wife the former Sheila Mathewson (died 1964), and was educated at Eton.

He succeeded to the baronetcy on his father’s death, in 1971, but did not use the title.  Jeremy Child was thrice wed; firstly in 1971 (div 1976) to the actress Deborah Grant; then in 1978 (div 1986) to the dancer Jan Todd; and thirdly in 1987 to Elizabeth Morgan (who predeceased him in 2019).

The baronetcy now passes to his son from his second marriage, Coles John Alexander Child, who was born 10 May, 1982
