CUMING-GORDON, of Altyr, and Gordonftown, 
in Elgin ; created May 12, 1804.—Sir Wi lliam-Gor. 
don Coming-Gordon, the fecond baronet, born July 
20, 1787, fucceeded -his father, fir Alexander-fenrofe, 
Feb. 10, 1806.—The family of Cuming is (aid to be de¬ 
fcended from the ancient family of the Comines in France. 
Robert Cumine, earl of Northumberland, Was employed 
againft the rebels in Northumberland, as they were then 
termed, anno io63. William Cumine was lord high chan¬ 
cellor of Scotland in the reign of king David I. who 
fucceeded to the throne in 1124. - It is.agreed that the 
Cumines had large poff'eflions in lands, and much greater 
power than any other name in Scotland, from the reign 
of Malcolm III. ftyled Canmore, to that of Robert 
Bruce. The Cumines, lords Badenoch, were undoubt¬ 
edly chiefs of the whole clan. From them were defcend¬ 
ed the Cumines earls of Buchan,earls of Monteith, &c. 
The Cumines of Altyr, defcended from a younger fon 
the lords of Badenoch, appear now to be the reprefen- 
tatives of that great and once flourilhing family. For, 
fir John Cumine, lord of Badenoch, who died in 1249, 
left two fons : 1. John lord of Badenoch, his fucceffor. 
2. Robert progenitor of the family of Altyr. The male 
line of John is now extindf, as he died 19 Edw. II. 
“ leaving Joane, wife of David de Strathbolgie earl of 
Athole, then 30 years of age, and Elizabeth, her lifter, 
26 years of age, his lifters and next heirs, which Elizabeth 
afterwards became wife of Richard Talbot.” (See Dug- 
dale’s Baronage, i, 686.) It feerns that from this 'Eliza¬ 
beth the earls of Shrewsbury have affumed, and to this 
day bear, the title of lord Cumine of Badenoch, deriving from 
the femaleline, to the prejudice of (hema/e of Robert, 
fecond fon of fir John Cumine lord of Badenoch, and 
brother of the (aid Elizabeth; ot which Robert fir Wil¬ 
liam Gumming of Altyr is now the undoubted reprefen¬ 
tative and lineal defeeadant; it is prefumed, therefore, 
that fir William has a claim to the title of lord Cumine 
of Badenoch luperior to that of the earl of Shrew (bury.—
