Credentials
- • Verified by The Roll seeing original Letters Patent "Lord of Garlies... Baron of Buchan Forest" officially recognised by Lord Lyon 27th Feb 2007
- • 🚩 On the style "Lord of Garlies": the Great Seal erected Garlies as a barony, "de novo incorporavit in liberam baroniam de Garrules" (RMS iii, no. 2820, 23 October 1542; archive.org/…/n673). No Crown charter erecting a lordship of Garlies has yet been identified in the Register of the Great Seal (vols ii to viii, 1424 to 1633) or the Retours (to 1700), searched as Garrules, Garrulis, Garleis and Garlies; not searched: the Great Seal after 1633, the Privy Seal and the Register of Sasines. The style rests on the Lord Lyon's Letters Patent of 27 February 2007 above.
Authentication
A note on terminology: “Scottish feudal barony” or “feudal title” is an incorrect, defunct historical term for extant barons. Baronies were feudal until 28 November 2004, when feudal baronies were abolished and the dignity of baron was retained — an extant barony is no longer “feudal”. The correct term is Scottish barony or Scottish baron (or baron, lord or earl in the Baronage of Scotland, collectively the minor barons of Scotland); never “feudal baron”. Why the term is defunct →
A barony pledged on the Roll of Scottish Barons is treated by the Roll as hereditary and not in commercio. A pledged barony later conveyed outside the family forfeits its recognition on the Roll in perpetuity. What “Hereditary on the Roll” means →
