Earl Of Leven
Earl of Leven (pronounced "''Lee''-ven") is a title in the Peerage of Scotland. It was created in 1641 for Alexander Leslie. He was succeeded by his grandson Alexander, who was in turn followed by his daughters Margaret and Catherine (who are usually not included in the numbering of the Earls). Thereafter, there was a dispute relating to succession to the title between David Melville and John Leslie, 1st Duke of Rothes. However, in 1681, Melville's claim was admitted after the Duke of Rothes died. In 1707, Melville succeeded to the title Earl of Melville, and thereafter the earldoms have been united. The other titles held by the Earl are: Viscount of Kirkaldie (created 1690), Lord Melville of Monymaill (1616), Lord Balgonie (1641), Lord Raith, Monymaill and Balwearie (1690). All are in the Peerage of Scotland. The heir apparent to the Earldoms is styled Lord Balgonie. The family seat is Glenferness House, near Nairn, Highland. Earls of Leven (1641) *Alexander Leslie, 1st Earl o ...

Leven, Fife
Leven ( gd, Inbhir Lìobhann) is a seaside town in Fife, set in the east Central Lowlands of Scotland. It lies on the coast of the Firth of Forth at the mouth of the River Leven, north-east of the town of Kirkcaldy and east of Glenrothes. According to an estimate taken in 2020, Leven has a population of 9,420. The town forms part of the Levenmouth conurbation, which has a total population of 37,651. History The origin of the name "Leven" comes from the Pictish word for "flood". The nearby Loch Leven, being the flood lake, was the name given to both the river and town. A settlement is believed to have formed at the mouth of the River Leven very close to the area around Scoonie Brae with the discovery of the parish church of ''"scoyne"''. During the mid-11th century, Bishop Tuadal of St Andrews gifted the church of "scoyne" to the Culdees of Loch Leven. By the end of the 11th century, the village along with the church were acquired by Bishop Robert of St Andrews followin ...

Leven, East Riding Of Yorkshire
Leven is a village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is situated approximately west of Hornsea town centre, and north-west of the A165 road. According to the 2011 UK census, Leven parish had a population of 2,433, an increase on the 2001 UK census figure of 2,240.

Finds from Leven 'Carrs' (marshy land) have included axe heads, leaf-shaped swords, and a spearhead. Three quarters of a mile west of Little Leven, at Hall Garth, is the site of Leven's former parish church - St Faith's - which was in use between 1350 and 1843. It is speculated that the original village of Leven was sited in its immediate vicinity though archaeological understanding of that area is sparse. In 1823 Leven (then spelt 'Leaven'), was a civil parish in t ...
