Buchan-Hepburn Baronets

Buchan-Hepburn Baronets

The Buchan-Hepburn Baronetcy, of Smeaton-Hepburn in the County of Haddington, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 6 May 1815 for George Buchan-Hepburn. He was a Judge of the Admiralty Court from 1790 to 1791 and a Baron of the Exchequer for Scotland from 1791 to 1814. Born George Buchan, he assumed by Royal license the additional surname of Hepburn in 1764, which was that of his maternal grandfather. His grandson, the third Baronet (who succeeded his father), represented Haddington in the House of Commons from 1838 to 1847. His son, the fourth Baronet, was a Deputy Lieutenant of Haddingtonshire. On the death of his grandson, the sixth Baronet, in 1992, the line of the eldest son of the second Baronet failed. The late Baronet was succeeded by his third cousin, the seventh and (as of 2007) present holder of the title. He is the great-grandson of John Buchan-Hepburn, younger son of the second Baronet. The family surname is pronounced "Bukkan-Hebburn".

Patrick Buchan-Hepburn, 1st Baron Hailes, was the third son of the fourth Baronet.
