Innes baronets of Coxton (1686)

Escutcheon of the Innes baronets of Coxton

The Innes baronetcy, of Coxton in the County of Moray, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia on 20 March 1686 for Alexander Innes, Member of the Scottish Parliament for Moray, with remainder to heirs male whatsoever.[1] He was a descendant of John Innes of Coxton, grandson of Patrick Innes, great-great-great-uncle of the first of the Innes baronets of Balvenie.

The line of the 1st Baronet failed in 1803.[1] The 7th Baronet was the great-grandson of John Innes, the younger brother of the 1st Baronet. This line of the family failed on the death of the 8th Baronet in 1886. The claim passed to Charles Innes, de jure 9th Baronet, a descendant of John Innes, great-uncle of the 1st Baronet.

The 11th Baronet proved his succession in 1973 and was placed on the Official Roll of the Baronetage.[2]
