The arms of Grant-Suttie at Prestongrange House

The Suttie , later Grant-Suttie Baronetcy , of Balgone in the County of Haddington, is a title originally created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia .

It was created on 5 May 1702 for George Suttie. The third and fourth Baronets both sat as Members of Parliament for Haddingtonshire . The latter assumed the additional surname of Grant on succeeding to the estates of his aunt, Janet, Countess of Hyndford , daughter of William Grant, Lord Prestongrange . Francis Grant-Suttie, second son of the fifth Baronet and grandfather of the eighth Baronet, was a captain in the Royal Navy .

A large number of the family lie buried in the old parish churchyard of North Berwick . The graves lie in three locations: within the church ruins; on the south side of the church; and against the south boundary. All graves are in very poor condition.
