This territorial designation looks wrong

"Sir John Baird, 2nd Baronet, of Urie. He had already been created Baron Stonehaven, of Ury in the County of Kincardine, in 1925."

Urie or Ury? - Kittybrewster 12:32, 14 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

My Whitaker 1902 peerage says "Urie." Urie, Stonehaven, Kincardineshire. On the other hand, both spellings are used at http://www.mearns.org.uk/stonehaven/barclay.htm Laura1822 00:18, 22 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Succession

edit

Unless I'm misreading the succession lines we are confusing matters with our link giving the Viscount Stonehaven succession to follow the Earl of Kintore page. As I see it the present Earl has only a daughter so the Earldom+barony will pass to her on his death but the viscountcy/barony and baronetcy passes to heirs male so will pass to Hon Alexander David Baird (1946) aka Hon. David Keith and as I can't find details of any children there onto his cousin (his uncle's son) Ceanan Donald Baird (1943) and his son Hamish Duncan Baird (1975) Alci12 09:39, 2 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
