Lucas-Tooth baronets of Bught (1920)

The Lucas-Tooth baronetcy, of Bught in the County of Inverness, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 1 December 1920 for the seventeen-year-old Hugh Lucas-Tooth né Hugh Warrand. He was the son of Major Hugh Warrand and his wife Beatrice Maude, eldest daughter of the 1st Baronet of the 1906 creation. He assumed by Royal licence the surname of Lucas-Tooth in lieu of his patronymic in 1920. He later became a Conservative Member of Parliament.[1] In 1965 he assumed for himself only the additional surname of Munro.[2]

The baronetcy was created with remainder, failing male issue of the body of the grantee, to the other heirs male of the body of his mother.[1]
