Sir Thomas Monson, 1st Baronet
- Sir Thomas Monson, 1st Baronet
Sir Thomas Monson, 1st Baronet (1565–29 May 1641) was an English politician and supporter of King James I. He served as a Member of Parliament for Lincolnshire (1597 –1598), Castle Rising (1604–1611), and finally Cricklade in 1614. He was created a hereditary baronet in 1611, one of the first in the Baronetage of England. Monson held a position of trust at the Tower of London, a circumstance which led to his arrest as one of the participators in the 1613 murder of Sir Thomas Overbury. He was, however, soon released.
Monson's elder brother was Admiral Sir William Monson.
