Brigadier Henry Coventry Maitland-Makgill-Crichton, CB, CMG, DSO (29 June 1880 – 29 September 1953) was a Scottish senior officer in the British Army.
On his return, he was granted the temporary rank of brigadier, commanded an infantry regiment and became an Aide-de-Camp to the King before his retirement in 1937.
Despite returning as an area commander for the first two years of the Second World War, Maitland left active service in 1941 and died at the age of 73 in 1953.
They had a daughter, Diana Elizabeth Katherine (1916–1999), who earned the Territorial Decoration, and a son, Hamilton Ian (born 1918), who was killed in action in June 1940 while commissioned as a lieutenant in the Royal Scots Fusiliers.
[12] After four years in that post and three as an aide-de-camp to the king,[1] he was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath[1] and retired on 29 June 1937, when he was granted the honorary rank of brigadier.
