Awards

The first bestowal in 1897 was the title of Baron Strathcona and Mount Royal , of Glencoe in the County of Argyll and of Mount Royal in the Province of Quebec and Dominion of Canada , for the Scottish- born Canadian financier and politician Sir Donald Smith . That title expired in 1914 when Smith died without a male descendant.

In 1900, Smith was again awarded the title Baron Strathcona and Mount Royal , of Mount Royal in the Province of Quebec and Dominion of Canada and of Glencoe in the County of Argyll, but now with the special note that the title is lacking Sons could also pass to his only daughter and her male descendants. This also happened.
