The Home Baronetcy, of Wedderburn in the County of Berwick, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia in circa 1638 for David Home. On the death of the second Baronet in circa 1716 the heir was under attainder and the baronetcy consequently forfeited.

He was a descendant of John Home, fourth son of Sir David Home of Wedderburn, who was killed at the Battle of Flodden in 1513. Sir David's sons who were present at the battle were known as the "Seven Spears of Wedderburn". Sir David Home was a descendant of Sir David Home (15th century), younger son of Sir Thomas Home of that Ilk, who is also the ancestor of the Earls of Home. The seventh Baronet was a Vice-Admiral of the Blue. The tenth Baronet assumed in 1878 the additional surname of Speirs. However, none of his successors have borne this surname.
