Viscount Aboyne

Viscount Aboyne was a title in the Peerage of Scotland. It was created on 20 April 1632 for George Gordon, Earl of Enzie, eldest son of George Gordon, 1st Marquess of Huntly, with remainder that the title should pass to his second son the Hon. James Gordon on his death or on the death of his father, whichever came first. On Lord Huntly's succession to the marquessate in 1636 the viscountcy passed according to the special remainder to his second son, the second Viscount.[1] He never married and on his death in 1649 the title became extinct.[2]

gollark: Since you appear, er, not dead.
gollark: Which is also a bad thing to base government policy on.
gollark: Regardless of whether having guns is a good idea or not, it's still a bit stupid to set government policy based on the latest terror attack.
