Dalyell Baronets
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dalyell Baronetcy is a baronetcy in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia, which was created 7 November 1685 for the Scottish General, Thomas Dalyell of the Binns. The succession of the title is interesting in that it was created with remainder to his eldest son and heirs male, yet failing that, could pass to tailzie succeeding him in the estate of The Binns.
