Mary married David WEMYSS 4th Earl of Wemyss, son of Sir James WEMYSS Lord Burntisland and Margaret WEMYSS Countess of Wemyss, suo jure, about 1708.1 (David WEMYSS 4th Earl of Wemyss was baptised on 29 April 1678 1 and died on 15 March 1720 in Wemyss, Fife, Scotland 1.). The cause of his death was brief illness.


  Marriage Notes:

"The Earl married, secondly, about 1708, Mary Robinson, eldest daughter and coheiress of Sir John Robinson of Farmingwood, co. Northampton, Baronet. But though she had large estates, it was found at her death, which took place, without issue, before 8 September 1712, that her property was so burdened that no profit came to the Earl."
