Seton baronets of Pitmedden (1683)

The Seton baronetcy, of Pitmedden in the County of Aberdeen, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia on 15 January 1683 for Alexander Seton, a Member of the Scottish Parliament for Aberdeenshire, and a Lord of the Justiciary under the judicial title of Lord Pitmedden.

The 2nd Baronet was one of the Commissioners for the Treaty of Union between England and Scotland and sat as Member of Parliament for the combined Scottish constituencies at the first Parliament of Great Britain.

The presumed 12th Baronet did not successfully prove his succession and was consequently not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage; and the same was the case for the presumed 13th Baronet. As of 2026 the title is marked dormant on the Official Roll.
