Arthur Maxwell, 11th Baron Farnham
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arthur Kenlis Maxwell, 11th Baron Farnham (2 October 1879 - 5 February 1957) was an Irish Representative peer and a Nova Scotia baronet.
He was the son of Somerset Maxwell, 10th Baron Farnham and Lady Florence Jane Taylour. On his father's death, he succeeded as 11th Baron Farnham and 14th Baronet of Calderwood on the 22 November 1900. He married Aileen Selina Coote, daughter of Charles Purdon Coote and Lydia Lucy Wingfield-Digby, on 8 October 1903. On the 18 December 1908, he was elected an Irish Representative peer. His son, Somerset, had died of wounds in 1942, and so on his death, the baron and baronet titles were passed to his grandson, Barry.
