Lord Adam Gordon
Major Lord Adam Granville Gordon, KCVO, MBE (1 March 1909–1984) was a British royal courtier.
Gordon was the second son of Lt.-Col. Douglas Gordon, who was later an equerry to the Duke of Connaught. He was educated at Eton and joined the territorial division of the Royal Artillery in 1927, rising to the rank of Major and fought in World War II (where he was mentioned in despatches and afterwards awarded the MBE). In 1937, his elder brother, Douglas, had inherited their great-uncle's title of Marquess of Huntly and Adam and his younger brothers were granted the rank of a marquess's younger sons, enabling him to use the prefix ''Lord''.
In 1953, Lord Adam succeeded Gp. Capt. Peter Townsend as Comptroller and Assistant Private Secretary to The Queen Mother, a post he held until his retirement in 1974. He was knighted in 1960 and died in 1984.
