Dalrymple-White baronets

The Dalrymple-White Baronetcy, of High Mark in the County of Wigtown, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.[1] It was created on 28 July 1926 for the soldier and Conservative politician Godfrey Dalrymple-White. As of 2007 the title is held by his grandson, the third Baronet, who succeeded his father in 2006.

Sir Henry Dalrymple White (1820–1886), father of the first Baronet, was a general in the Army and commanded the 6th (Inniskilling) Dragoons during the Crimean War. Sir John Chambers White (died 1845), grandfather of the first Baronet, was a vice-admiral in the Royal Navy. He married Charlotte Elizabeth, daughter of General Sir Hew Whiteford Dalrymple, 1st Baronet (see Dalrymple baronets).
