[edit]

The death date given for "James Sandilands, 1st Lord Torphichen" is suspect; see James Sandilands, 1st Lord Torphichen#Notes. J. Peterka 14:11, 29 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Death date corrected on 13 July 2007. J. Peterka 17:10, 31 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Assigns Whatsoever

[edit]

I have now removed this phrase of my own volition; "As such the title is one of the few recognised peerage titles that could be legally sold, or passed on to heirs not of the body." I maintain, however, that this is the consequences of the barony's remainder being to "assigns whatsoever", ie. it can be assigned. --Counter-revolutionary (talk) 14:32, 22 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

This sentence is jarring, awkward and shambolic.

[edit]

Whoever is editing this article ought to do a better job. This sentence is a disaster of syntax, and the parenthetical occurs at the wrong time in the article: "Some Scottish titles (another title that can choose the heir is Lord Kinloss but there are others) are a rare exception to the typical rule that peerages cannot be transferred and must be inherited."

It appears somebody is either editing with bias or merely, frankly, a crap writer. 2600:4040:5AEF:B400:79BB:98F8:A1B7:9227 (talk) 21:04, 13 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
