Wishart baronets information


The Wishart Baronetcy, of Clifton Hall in the County of Edinburgh, was a title in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia. It was created on 17 June 1706 for George Wishart. Emilia Stuart Belches was heir general of the original grantee and was apparently allowed to succeed to the baronetcy. Assuming she did succeed, she was one of only five female baronets - see also Bolles (created 1635), Dalyell (created 1685), Dunbar (created 1706) and Maxwell (created 1682). The fourth Baronet sat as Member of Parliament for Kincardineshire. The title became dormant on his death in 1821.
