Usher baronets

The Usher Baronetcy, of Norton in Ratho in the County of Midlothian, and of Wells in Hobkirk in the County of Roxburgh, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.

It was created on 29 August 1899 for John Usher, a whisky distiller and benefactor, brother of Andrew Usher. The brothers founded Andrew Usher & Company and later the North British Distillery Company, and John assisted in founding the John Usher Institute of Public Health and a chair in public health at the University of Edinburgh in 1898.[1] John married Mary Balmer, and together they had seven children, including Robert Usher, the 2nd Baronet.
