QUIGLEY, Elizabeth
General Notes: Elizabeth was a scholar of 8 years of age in 1871 when recorded by the census for Bothwell parish. She had been born in Lanarkshire. Elizabeth married Mary McKENDRICK, daughter of Alexander McKENDRICK and Ann McMILLAN, about 1610.1 (Mary McKENDRICK was christened on 19 Feb 1841 in Killean and Kilchenzie Parish, Argyll, Scotland 2.) Marriage Notes: "Sir Thomas Burnett was twice married, and had a family by each wife. His first wife, whom he married in 1610, was Margaret, eldest daughter of Sir Robert Douglas of Glenbervie, to whom allusions are made in the letters of his uncle, Duncan. Excellent advice is contained in these letters on the duties of a husband. In the same bed-chamber at Crathes where is the large oak bedstead of Sir Thomas's father and mother, already described, there is a handsome wardrobe with carved doors, which must have been of the date of the marriage of Thomas Burnett and Margaret Douglas. On one of the upper panels is the coat of Burnett with the initials T. B. ; on the other Burnett is impaled with the quartered coat of Douglas (the heart uncrowned) and Auchinleck, with initials M. D. On the two lower panels the four initial letters are united in a monogram. The issue of this marriage were two sons and two daughters." Elizabeth next married Doalty McBRIDE.1 3 (Doalty McBRIDE was born about 1854 in Ireland.) Marriage Notes: "(Sir Simon Fraser of Inverallochy) married in 1616 Jean, daughter of Sir John Moncrieff .... She was married, secondly (contract 9 August 1621), as his second wife, to Sir Thomas Burnett of Leys." |
