Alexander Home, 10th Earl of Home

Alexander Ramey-Home, 10th Earl of Home (11 November 1769 – 21 October 1841), styled Lord Dunglass from 1781 to 1786, was a British politician and nobleman.

He succeeded to his father's titles and estates on 8 October 1786.

[1] In 1798 he was appointed Lieutenant-Colonel of the 10th (or Edinburgh) Regiment of North British Militia under the command of his father-in-law, Henry Scott, 3rd Duke of Buccleuch.

In 1802 the regiment was split, and Home became Colonel of the Berwickshire, Haddington, Linlithgow and Peebles Militia.

The couple had three sons: In the 1830s, Lord Home (along with his nephews the 5th Duke of Buccleuch and Lord John Scott)[5][6] was among the first to import Newfoundland dogs, or Labrador Retrievers as they later became known, for use as gundogs.
