The Erskine baronetcy, of Cambo in the County of Fife, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 27 August 1821 for David Erskine, a grandson through an illegitimate line of Thomas Erskine, 9th Earl of Kellie.[1] The original baronetcy of Cambo became extinct on the death of the tenth Earl of Kellie in 1829.[2]
The 2nd Baronet was a Deputy Lieutenant of Denbighshire. The 3rd Baronet was a Deputy Lieutenant of Fife. The 5th Baronet was Convenor of the Fife County Council between 1970 and 1973 and Vice-Lord Lieutenant of Fife between 1981 and 1987. The title has descended in a direct line from father to son.
