The attachment to the cause of the Stewarts had led to the loss of Fingask, and it would appear that the family now transferred their loyalty to the reigning family. In the service of the Duke of Cumberland, Laurence Dundas amassed a fortune, which ultimately raised this younger branch of the Fingask family to the peerage. Laurence Dundas' son, Thomas, was created Baron Dundas in 1794, and his son and successor, Laurence, was created Earl of Zetland in 1838 .
Laurence was created a Baronet in 1762
