"All (George) Jameson's sons died in early life .... His daughter, Mary, whose numerous descendants are now living, was first married to Mr. Burnett of Elrick, in the county of Aberdeen."

from Annals of Aberdeen (vol 1)




Then on 12 April 1664, the diary of Revd. John Rowe tells us:

"…today John Burnet Dean of Guild and Marie Jameson were married." John Burnet was a merchant adventurer, sailing with his goods to Virginia and shipping back tobacco, a vastly fashionable commodity at the time. Burnet had become rich and bought an estate, so was now Burnet of Elrick, and having been recently widowed, was in need of a wife to care for his three bairns. But the marriage was short-lived, for John died in 1666 leaving Mary to look after her own two babies and oversee the estate for her eldest stepson.
