The Barrow, later Crawley-Boevey Baronetcy (pronounced "Boovey"), of Highgrove (Hygrove House, Minsterworth) in the County of Gloucester, is a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 22 January 1784 for Charles Barrow, Member of Parliament for Gloucester, with a special remainder to Thomas Crawley-Boevey, husband of his first cousin, once removed, who succeeded as second Baronet. Crawley-Boevey was husband of Ann, granddaughter of Thomas Barrow, brother of the first Baronet. His grandfather Thomas Crawley had on inheriting Flaxley Abbey in 1726 assumed the additional surname of Boevey. Flaxley Abbey had been purchased in 1648 by the merchant, lawyer and philosopher James Boevey (1622–1696) and his half-brother William Boevey. The second Baronet was succeeded by his eldest son, the third Baronet. He was High Sheriff of Gloucestershire from 1831 to 1832. His grandson (who succeeded his father), the fifth Baronet, was High Sheriff of Gloucestershire in 1882.
