Notes:

He inherited as Lord of the Manor of Halliford, Middlesex from his aunt, Susan Lumley, sometime between 1886 and 1890 . She was the widow of Robert Wheatley Lumley, (1804-1852).and daughter of Colin Douglas, who died in 1820.

THE family name of the House of Blythswood is derived from Colin Campbell of Elie, a cadet of the House of Ardkinglass in Argyll, who acquired the estate during the reign of Charles I., but through his granddaughter and heiress the property passed to the Douglases of Mains in Dunbartonshire, with whom it has since remained. Sir Archibald Campbell , Bart., Baron Blythswood, was the eldest son of Archibald Douglas of Mains, who succeeded his cousin, Major Campbell, M.P., laird of Blythswood. He was born in 1835, and for a time held a commission in the Scots Guards, being severely wounded in the Crimea, and seeing further service with his regiment in Canada. After leaving the army on the death of his father, in 1868, he turned to politics, and, standing in the Conservative interest, was elected M.P. for Renfrewshire in 1873, and for the Western Division of the county in 1886. He continued to represent the division till 1892, when he was raised to the Peerage as Baron Blythswood. Four years earlier the Senate of Glasgow University conferred upon him the degree of LL.D., and he had received a baronetcy in 1880. He was also appointed an aide-de-camp to Queen Victoria. He was Lord-Lieutenant of the county, had held the office of Convener of the County Council, and for twenty years, till 1897, was Lieutenant-Colonel of the 4th Battalion Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders.
In 1864 his Lordship - he was Colonel Campbell then - married a daughter of the late Lord Carrington, and with her he always took a strong interest in the social and philanthropic affairs of Glasgow, and with which his house has long been closely connected. Renfield Street in the city takes its name from the old designation of Blythswood House, and the latter in turn took its present name early in the nineteenth century from the valuable estate belonging to the family which now lies in the heart of Glasgow.
Lord Blythswood took a leading part in the great Glasgow Exhibitions of 1888 and 1901, and on the former occasion entertained Queen Victoria at Blythswood, and on the latter the Duke and Duchess of Fife. Among other distinguished guests who were also entertained by his Lordship were the late Duke of Albany in 1874 and 1882, our present King and Queen and their sons in 1876, and more recently the Prince and Princess of Wales , and the Empress of Russia.
His Lordship was something more than an amateur of science. He devoted much time to engineering and mechanical research, and at Blythswood possessed one of the finest laboratories in the Kingdom. He designed a speed indicator, which is now fitted to ships in His Majesty's Navy; he constructed a dividing engine for ruling diffraction gratings, parallel lines being ruled so close together that there have been 20,000 to an inch; he built the largest statical electrical machine in the world; and he narrowly missed being the discoverer of the R?ntgen Rays. He was a Fellow of the Royal Society. He died at Blythswood, 7th July, 1908.

Archibald married Augusta Clementina Carrington in 1864. Augusta and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

THE Rev. Sholto Douglas Campbell, M.A., second Baron Blythswood, is the second son of the late Archibald Douglas of Mains, who succeeded to the Blythswood estate in 1838, and assumed the name of Campbell. After spending some time at Cheam School, he was educated for the army, but presently, with a view to holy orders, he entered Trinity College, Cambridge, where he graduated B.A. in 1864 and M.A. in 1878. In the following year he was ordained by the Bishop of Worcester, and after holding successive appointments at Nuneaton, Gateshead, and Derby, he was assigned by the Crown the District Rectory of All Souls, Marylebone, in 1878. He took an active part in initiating the parochial mission movement in the Church of England, and though he had inherited the estate of Douglas Support, near Coatbridge, from Brigadier-General Sir Thomas Monteith Douglas in 1868, he remained in his English charge till 1887. In that year he accepted the incumbency of St. Silas' English Episcopal Church, off Woodlands Road, Glasgow, which had been built by his father and others. This charge he resigned only in 1899. He succeeded his brother, the first Lord Blythswood, in the title and estates in July, 1908. A month previously his own historic residence of Douglas Support had been destroyed by fire, but it is being rebuilt and will be occupied by his brother and heir General Barrington C. Douglas.
His Lordship has for long been in the habit of holding a conference of clergymen of all evangelical denominations at Douglas Support thrice a year for consideration of devotional and missionary subjects. He has three mission halls on the estate, and supports a resident missionary and Bible-woman.
In 1899 he married Violet Mary, daughter of the late Lord Alfred Paget, and grand-daughter of the late Marquis of Anglesey. She died in June, 1908.

Sholto married Violet Mary Paget on 22 Oct 1889 in Kingston Upon Thames, Surrey. Violet (daughter of Alfred Henry Paget and Cecilia Wyndham) died in Jun 1908 in Douglas Support, Coatbridge, Lanarkshire, Scotland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
