He was educated at Merton College, Oxford. Bagot married Elizabeth Cave (d. 1638), daughter of Roger Cave of Stanford and Elizabeth Cecil, a daughter of Thomas Cecil (1542-1623). Bagot's eldest son Lewis's behaviour in London caused his parents concern. He had discussed marrying his cousin Jane Skipwith behind his father's back. Before and after his death in 1611 there was a rumour that he had a child or was married. Bagot asked his associates in London, John Chadwick and Thomas Docksie, to investigate. They found a woman called Mary Bagaley who claimed to be Lewis's wife, but the marriage had been kept secret by Lewis for "fear of his father's displeasure". Mary said she was pregnant by Lewis.

Baronets In The Baronetage Of England
A baronet ( or ; abbreviated Bart or Bt) or the female equivalent, a baronetess (, , or ; abbreviation Btss), is the holder of a baronetcy, a hereditary title awarded by the British Crown. The title of baronet is mentioned as early as the 14th century, however in its current usage was created by James I of England in 1611 as a means of raising funds for the crown. A baronetcy is the only British hereditary honour that is not a peerage, with the exception of the Anglo-Irish Black Knights, White Knights, and Green Knights (of whom only the Green Knights are extant). A baronet is addressed as "Sir" (just as is a knight) or "Dame" in the case of a baronetess, but ranks above all knighthoods and damehoods in the order of precedence, except for the Order of the Garter, the Order of the Thistle, and the dormant Order of St Patrick. Baronets are conventionally seen to belong to the lesser nobility, even though William Thoms claims that: The precise quality of this dignity is ...
