Craufurd baronets
The Craufurd Baronetcy, of Kilbirney in south-west Scotland ("North Britain" in the terminology of the time), is a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 8 June 1781 for Alexander Craufurd, the member of an ancient Scottish family. The General and Major-General were elected to the Nottinghamshire East Retford (UK Parliament constituency) of the almost wholly unreformed (pre-1832) House of Commons.
