• Notes

  1st Baron Tweedmouth Dudley was unable to acquire the partnership in the Bank (it passed to his elder brother Edward) but he inherited a substantial fortune from his father and acquired considerable wealth of his own after the purchase of Meux Brewery. He built the mansion of Brook House in London's fashionable Park Lane and purchased the highland deer forest of Guisachan ("Place of the Firs") in Inverness-shire, and the substantial estates of Hutton and Eddington near his family roots in Berwickshire. He was descended from Joseph Marjoribanks, a wine and fish merchant in Edinburgh who died in 1635 and is thought to have been the grandson of Thomas Marjoribanks of Ratho, head of the lowland Clan Marjoribanks. Fulfilling a family tradition, in 1853 Dudley became the Liberal Member of Parliament for Berwick-upon-Tweed and, although he was never a political high-flyer, he was a useful member and in 1880, and for reasons perhaps not unconnected with the wealth and prestige that he brought to the party, was elevated to the peerage as the first Baron Tweedmouth
