The Stanley, later Stanley-Massey-Stanley, later Errington baronetcy, of Hooton in the County of Chester, was created in the Baronetage of England on 17 June 1661 for William Stanley, the great-grandson of Sir William Stanley, of Hooton and Stourton, a member of the Stanley family headed by the Earl of Derby. He had married in 1651 Mary Molyneux, daughter of Richard Molyneux, 1st Viscount Molyneux. The 6th Baronet assumed the surname Stanley-Massey-Stanley.
The 9th Baronet married Mary Haggerston, great-niece and heiress of Henry Errington of Sandhoe House, Northumberland. Their eldest son, the 10th Baronet, represented Pontefract in Parliament from 1837 to 1841. Their second son, Rowland Stanley, the 11th Baronet, inherited the Errington estate in Northumberland and changed his name and arms to Errington. The title became extinct on the death of the 12th Baronet in 1893.
