Mackenzie baronets of Scatwell (1703)

Last updated

The Mackenzie baronetcy, of Scatwell in the County of Ross, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia on 22 February 1703 for Kenneth Mackenzie, who represented Ross-shire in the Scottish Parliament. He was a descendant of Kenneth Mackenzie, brother of the 1st Baronet of the 1628 creation. [1] The 5th Baronet represented Ross-shire in the British Parliament and was Lord Lieutenant of Ross-shire. [2]

The presumed 10th and 11th Baronets did not prove their succession. The baronetcy as of 2024 is considered dormant. [3]

The Mackenzie baronets of Tarbat were a collateral branch of the Mackenzie Earls of Cromartie and the present Baronet has claimed he is the representative as heir male collateral of Sir John Mackenzie, 1st Baronet of Tarbat. [4]
