George Traill
George Traill (5 November 1787 – 29 September 1871)[1][2] was a Liberal Party politician in Scotland.
He was the Member of Parliament (MP) for Orkney and Shetland from 1830[1] until his defeat at the 1835 general election.[3]
In 1837 he stood unsuccessfully in Caithness,[4] but at the 1841 general election he was returned unopposed for that seat.[4] He was re-elected at the six further general elections,[4] and held the seat until he resigned from the House of Commons on 8 August 1869 by becoming Steward of the Manor of Northstead.[5]
