Debrett's 2008 indicates that Sir Peter was resident in Weirda Park (sic - I think it should be Wierda Park), nr Pretoria, South Africa. Hopefully we will be able to get confirmation from the South Africa Gazettes in time.

I agree Miles Roderick Turing MacKENZIE is the 14th Baronet (if living).  Miles is resident in New South Wales, Australia according to Debrett's 2008.  Not sure where Angus is based (his wife is described as of Istanbul, Turkey)

I have just noticed that DPB online haven't updated their Mackenzie Baronets of Coul pages to reflect the death of Sir Peter Douglas Mackenzie. The Kershaw baronetage list however states that Miles is the present baronet.  The South Africa Gazettes search facility on Ancestors.co.za doesn't list any probate for Peter but the search doesn't yet include the 2024 Gazettes.
