Nairnshire / Re: Rose of Kilravock
« on: Saturday 09 June 12 18:47 BST (UK)  »
We visited Kilvarock Castle in 2008. At that time Anna Elizabeth Guillemard was still alive but in a care home in Nairns, as stated above. She since died (in 2010). I have not been able to confirm who would become the 26th Baron of Kilravock, but David Hugh Heriot Baird Rose (*1946) looks like the next in line, accepting that the title can pass on via female heirs (as it clearly does). I believe it was Elizabeth Rose (1747-1815) who fought a prolonged legal battle to be awarded the title as 19th Baroness, the first lady in the line of Kilravock.

Can anyone confirm a) the rules for passing on the baron title in the Rose of Kilvarock line and b) whether David Hugh's accepted the title?
