Information About

Earl Of Strathmore




Aside from the Earldoms, the Earl holds the subsidiary titles: ''Viscount Lyon'' (created 1677), ''Lord Glamis, Tannadyce, Sidlaw and Strathditchie'' (1677), ''Lord Glamis'' (1445) and ''Baron Bowes'' (1887). The first three are in the Peerage of Scotland; the last is in the Peerage of the UK. The eldest son of the Earl uses ''Lord Glamis'' as a Courtesy Title . Normally, the highest subsidiary title (in this case ''Viscount Lyon'') would be used, but the same is not done so as not to cause confusion with the Lord Lyon .

Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon ( 1900 - 2002 ), the Queen Consort of King George VI from 1936 until 1952 , was the daughter of the 14th Earl of Strathmore & Kinghorne.

The family seat is Glamis Castle , in Angus , Scotland .
