Notes:

Margaret Douglas MacLean Clephanes long name is the result of her father inheriting three different estates from his father, mother and wife. But Margaret can hardly have known him, as he died abroad when she was a child, and the estate which was most important to the surviving family was her mother's clan lands in Mull, where the family lived, worked, and drew their identity. Margaret was a poet, and her husband had some of her work printed posthumously. They are available on-line.

After some years of ill-health, she died in Rome shortly after the birth of their sixth child [which one?], on 2nd April 1830.
