Grant-Suttie baronets

The Suttie, later Grant-Suttie Baronetcy, of Balgone in the County of Haddington, is a title in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia. It was created on 5 May 1702 for George Suttie. The third and fourth Baronets both sat as Members of Parliament for Haddingtonshire. The latter assumed the additional surname of Grant on succeeding to the estates of his aunt, Janet, Countess of Hyndford, daughter of William Grant, Lord Prestongrange. Francis Grant-Suttie, second son of the fifth Baronet and grandfather of the eighth Baronet, was a Captain in the Royal Navy.
