William Baird of Elie DL (23 April 1796 – 8 March 1864),[1] was the Tory Member of Parliament (MP) for Falkirk Burghs. He was first elected at the 1841 general election,[2] and held the seat until he resigned from Parliament[2] on 2 May 1846, by the procedural device of becoming Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds. The resulting by-election in Falkirk was won by the Tory candidate, Henry Pelham-Clinton,[2] known by his courtesy title "Earl of Lincoln". When Lincoln acceded to his Dukedom in 1851, Baird's brother James Baird was elected in his place. References1. ^{{rayment-hc|f|date=March 2012}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite book |last=Craig |first=F. W.
