List of Knights Companion of the Order of the Bath
- List of Knights Companion of the Order of the Bath
This is a list of those men who were made Knights Companion of the Order of the Bath from the date of the Order's revival by King George I of Great Britain, 18 May 1725, to its reorganisation on 2 January 1815. During this period the Order was limited to the Sovereign (the King), the Great Master and thirty-six Knights Companions. Knights Companion bore the postnominal KB. Those Knights living at the time of the remodelling of the Order automatically became Knights Grand Cross, with the postnominal GCB.
