	NTS AMC - Ailsa Craig Castle (Ownership)
		For, however bare and unproductive Ailsa may now appear to us, it must be remembered that in those days of swampy lands and poor tillage, an island like Ailsa, teeming during part of the year with countless sea-fowl, and during another part, with prolific conies, would appear quite a providential storehouse.
		Ailsa thus seems to have been disjoined from the rest of the Barony of Knockgarron, and the main portion of the property passed into other hands, after the Bruces (who succeeded the old Carrick Earls) ascended the throne.
		In 1883, in consider¬ation of £1400, five acres of land on Ailsa were disposed of to the Northern Lighthouse Commissioners, for the purpose of erecting on it the present Lighthouse establishment.

	Scots Members of the French Nobility
		The 1844 edition of the Annuaire de la Noblesse de France mentions that the duke of Hamilton was received at the court of Charles X "under the title of duc de Châtellerault." Burke's General Armory of 1844 blazons the arms of Hamilton with an inescutcheon bearing France in point of honor.
		The marquess of Abercorn, heir to the male line, appealed the decree before the French Conseil d'État, initially asking it to recognize his right to the title and annul the decree, and later admitting that the Conseil d'État could not adjudicate the dispute, but could suspend the decree until civil courts had decided the matter.
		The marquess of Abercorn claimed that the decree of 1864 confirmed the title for the whole family of Hamilton, and separately bestowed it to the duke of Hamilton, and disputed the latter but accepted the former.

		Puffins have bred on Ailsa Craig, off the Ayrshire coast, for the first time in 50 years after a programme to exterminate rats from the island, scientists said yesterday.
		In the 19th century the size of the puffin colony on the rocky outcrop was estimated at 50,000 and was said to cause "a bewildering darkness" when they all took off at once.
		Rat control began in 1991, as a result of a collaboration between the Marquess of Ailsa, who owns the island, Glasgow University and Scottish Natural Heritage, with advice from Rentokil, the pest control company.

	Luxury Scotland - Gateway to luxury hotels and activities in Scotland
		As is well known, the Scots have for generations been crazy about golf - and proud of its ancient association with the sport - and so it was perfectly sensible that the Marquess of Ailsa decided in 1901 to create a private golf course at Turnberry, part of his own family Culzean Estate.
		This was followed a few years later by the opening of the Turnberry Hotel, built majestically on the open bluff right above the golf course down near the shore, with its emblematic white lighthouse for all to see from miles around.
		The setting is unique with a perfect view across the sand dunes and rocky shoreline to the island of Arran, the volcanic `pudding` shape of Ailsa Craig, the long peninsula of the Mull of Kintyre and on a clear day, the coastline of Northern Ireland.

		For instance, the eldest son of the Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry is the Earl of Dalkeith, even though the Duke is also the Marquess of Dumfriesshire, a senior title to the Earldom of Dalkeith.
		Similarly, the eldest son of the Marquess of Londonderry is Viscount Castlereagh, even though the Marquess is also the Earl Vane.
		The title used does not have to be exactly equivalent to the actual peerage: the eldest son of the current Duke of Wellington uses the title "Marquess of Douro", even though the actual peerage possessed by his father is "Marquess Douro".
