Credentials
• Scottish Barony Register, Dignity of the Barony of Kirkbuddo (County of East Lothian) 28th Mar 2026 Vol 6 Folio 80-83
• PLEDGED HEREDITARY TITLE, this label indicates that the holder has formally signed the Roll’s Baronial Pledge — a non-legal declaration of intent that the barony be preserved within the family line and treated as a hereditary dignity. The Pledge operates as a family compact, intended to be retained with the holder’s will and estate papers. In accordance with Roll policy, the title becomes unrecognised by the Roll if the barony is later conveyed outside the family.
