His first wife died in childbed, in January, 1616, at the birth of her first and only child. Her father, Lord Duffus, died at the same time, "both of them," Sir Robert Gordon says, much regretted; chiefly the daughter, because of her untimely death in the flower of her age, when she was to give proof of her virtue and worth, leaving only one daughter behind her, of which she died in childbed."
