A Short History of Clan Drummond |
 | | He took proceedings in the Court of Session for the recovery of the lands, lordship, and barony of Drummond and earldom of Perth. |
 | | His actions were dismissed in 1808, as he could produce no title to sue, as well as the fact that he was a Catholic prelate, which meant he could not bring his claim before the House of Lords. |
 | | George Drummond, Duc de Melfort, Comte de Lussan, and Baron de Valrose in the peerage of France, was restored by an Act of Parliament to the earldom of Perth by the special command of Queen Victoria, which passed both Houses unanimously and received the Royal Assent on June 28, 1853. |
