The title Duke of Ross has been created twice in the Peerage of Scotland, both times for younger sons of the King of Scotland. Named for Ross in Scotland, it was first created in 1488[1] for James Stewart (who had been made Earl of Ross in 1481), the second son of King James III of Scotland. On his early death in 1504, the title became extinct. Subsidiary titles were Marquess of Ormonde (1488[2]), Earl of Ardmannoch (1481), and Lord Brechin and Nevar (1481), all in the Peerage of Scotland.

The title was created a second time for Alexander Stewart, the youngest son of King James IV of Scotland. On his death at the age of one in 1515 the title became extinct.
