The Bruce Baronetcy, of Balcaskie in Scotland, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia on 21 October 1668 for the architect William Bruce. He was a descendant of Robert Bruce, brother of Edward Bruce, 1st Lord Bruce of Kinloss, ancestor of the Earls of Elgin. His son, the second Baronet, was one of the Scottish representatives to the 1st Parliament of Great Britain. The title became extinct on his death in 1710.

The Anstruther Baronetcy, of Wrae in the County of Linlithgow and of Balcaskie, Fife and Braemore in the County of Caithness, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia on 28 November 1694 for Robert Anstruther, subsequently Member of Parliament for Fifeshire. (It should not be confused with the Anstruther Baronetcy of Anstruther in the County of Lanark, established 1700, also in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia, for a relative of Robert Anstruther. The two Anstruther titles were united in 1980).
