List of knights companion of the Order of the Bath

Add article description

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 post-nominal KB. Those knights living at the time of the remodelling of the order automatically became knights grand cross, with the post-nominal GCB.
