Earl of Dunfermline

Scottish peerage

Earl of Dunfermline was a title in the Peerage of Scotland. It was created in 1605 for Alexander Seton, 1st Lord Fyvie, fourth son of George Seton, 7th Lord Seton. Seton had already been created Lord Fyvie in the Peerage of Scotland, in 1598, with remainder to his elder brother, John Seton. He was succeeded by his son, the second Earl. He was Keeper of the Privy Seal of Scotland between 1661 and 1672. His younger son, the fourth Earl, was a supporter of the deposed James II and had his titles forfeited by parliament in 1690. He died in France in 1694 and the male line of the first Earl died out with him.
