Eliott baronets


The Eliott Baronetcy, of Stobs in the County of Roxburgh, is a title in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia. It was created on 3 December 1666 for Gilbert Eliott. The second baronet was a member of the pre-union Parliament of Scotland. The third Baronet sat as Member of Parliament for Roxburghshire (UK [Parliament constituency)|Roxburghshire]. The Eliott Baronets share a common early Elliot ancestry with the nearby Earls of Minto. It is thought that the surname spelling differences were contrived to differentiate the branches.
George [Augustus Eliott, 1st Baron Heathfield] was the tenth son of the third Baronet.
