Lords Ruthven of Freeland (1651)

  • Thomas Ruthven, 1st Lord Ruthven of Freeland (d. 1673)
  • David Ruthven, 2nd Lord Ruthven of Freeland (d. 1701)

The Complete Peerage considers that on the death of the 2nd Lord Ruthven, unmarried, the peerage became extinct, but notes that nonetheless it was assumed, first by the heir of entail of his estates, and later by the heirs of line. It traces these "soi-disant" barons in an appendix. Thus the first person in the list below which it recognizes as a peer is Walter Hore-Ruthven, who was created 1st Baron Ruthven of Gowrie in the peerage of the United Kingdom.

  • Jean Ruthven, 3rd Lady Ruthven of Freeland (d. 1722)
  • Isobel Ruthven, 4th Lady Ruthven of Freeland (d. 1783)
  • James Ruthven, 5th Lord Ruthven of Freeland (d. 1783)
  • James Ruthven, 6th Lord Ruthven of Freeland (1733–1789)
  • James Ruthven, 7th Lord Ruthven of Freeland (1777–1853)

Famous quotes containing the word lords:

    O dark dark dark. They all go into the dark,
    The vacant interstellar spaces, the vacant into the vacant,
    The captains, merchant bankers, eminent men of letters,
    The generous patrons of art, the statesmen and the rulers,
    Distinguished civil servants, chairmen of many committees,
    Industrial lords and petty contractors, all go into the dark....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
