Just for the sake of accuracy, there was no office of Secretary (of State) for Scotland until 1886. From time to time there was a post of "Third British Secretary with responsibility for Scotland" but not with any continuity. Presumably that is what the Marquis of Tweedsdale was, the office being abolished in 1746.
