Leith-Buchanan baronets

The Leith, later Leith-Buchanan baronetcy, of Burgh St Peter in the County of Norfolk, is a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 21 November 1775 for Alexander Leith, Member of Parliament for Tregony. The Leith family is of Scottish origin and descends from William Leith, Provost of Aberdeen in the 14th century.

The 3rd Baronet married Jemima, daughter of Hector Macdonald Buchanan; their son the 4th Baronet assumed the additional surname of Buchanan in 1877. The title is marked dormant on the Official Roll of the Baronetage.
