The Dundas baronetcy, of Beechwood in the County of Midlothian, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 24 August 1821 for Robert Dundas.[1] He was succeeded by his son David, the 2nd Baronet; three of his six sons, the 3rd, 4th and 5th Baronets, all succeeded in the title. The last was succeeded by his son, the 6h Baronet. He was childless and on his death in 1981 at the age of 99, the title became extinct.[2]
