Sir David Ramsay, 4th Baronet (after 1673 – by 1 September 1710), of Balmain, Kincardine, was a Scottish politician who sat in the Parliament of Scotland from 1705 to 1707 and in the British House of Commons from 1707 to 1710.
[1] Ramsay contested Kincardine in 1702 unsuccessfully, but was returned as Shire Commissioner in 1705.
In response to a petition from Kincardineshire freeholders to place Scottish J.P.s on the same footing as English J.P.s (and excuse the Scots from a 'slavish and unnecessary attendance' on circuit courts), he took charge of a bill during January and February 1709.
[2] While arranging his marriage, Ramsay was accidentally killed in a fall from his horse on or before 1 September 1710.
