Re the Fraser chief problem, as Lady Saltoun had only daughters, one could say her line has failed. ...

How?

Chiefships of clans can be held by women, and passed through them to their daughters, if they have no sons. This has occurred many times in history, and there are several other chiefs presently who are women. Lady Saulton's immediate line would fail only if she no children at all. I think I remember reading that Fraser of Lovat is in remainder to the chiefship of the name, but as noted, Lady S has children..


Unlike most English heritable entitlements, many, if not most, Scots peerages can also be inherited by and from women.
