Ruthven of Freeland Barony Questioned in Historic Review
The Ruthven family’s battle honors include a Victoria Cross and a Distinguished Service Order in Africa and South Africa. The claim to the Ruthven barony is considered dubious due to a possible 1651 creation by Cromwell with no official record or patent. A family account says the original document allowed a century of possession before a Freeland fire in 1760 destroyed it.
