Orr-Ewing baronets

There have been two baronetcies created for members of the Orr-Ewing family, both in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. Both creations are extant as of 2010.

History

[edit]

The Orr Ewing Baronetcy, of Ballikinrain in the parish of Killearn in the County of Stirling and of Lennoxbank in the parish of Bonhill in the County of Dunbarton, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 8 March 1886 for the Conservative politician Archibald Orr-Ewing.[1] He was the seventh son of William Ewing, a merchant of Glasgow, and Susan, daughter of John Orr, Provost of Paisley. The fourth Baronet was a Brigadier-General in the British Army. Charles Lindsay Orr-Ewing, fifth son of the first Baronet, was Member of Parliament for Ayr Burghs. His son Sir Ian Leslie Orr-Ewing was Member of Parliament for Weston-super-Mare.

The Orr-Ewing Baronetcy, of Hendon in the County of Middlesex, was created on 27 June 1963 for the Conservative politician Ian Orr-Ewing.[2] He was the grandson of John Orr-Ewing, fourth son of the first Baronet. In 1970 he was created a life peer as Baron Orr-Ewing, of Little Berkhamsted in the County of Hertford. The life peerage became extinct on his death in 1999 while he was succeeded in the baronetcy by his son, the second Baronet.
