16
Lilias Graham md. Lord
John Fleming (1567-1619) 6th Lord Fleming,
first Earl of Wigton in Scotland from 1606 [His
line]
"Biggar and the House of
Fleming" by William Hunter, F.S.a. Scot. Pages 551-552, 557:
"Lord Fleming married Lady
Lilias Graham, a daughter of John, Earl of Montrose. Her ladyship
was distinguished for her piety and devotion and her zealous efforts to
prmoote the principles of the Reformation. Livingstone, in his 'Characterisitcs'
says of her, 'When I was a child I have often seen her at my father's at
the preachings and communions. While dressing she read the Bible,
and every day at that time shed more tears (said one) than ever I did in
my life.'"
"The Earl died in April
1619 leaving three sons and five daughters and was succeeded by his eldes
son John who warmly embraced his mother's ecclesiastical opinions and was
as zealous of the cause of Presbyterianism as his forefathers had been
in the maintenance of Popery.
"He married Margaret, daughter
of Alexander Livingstone, first Earl of Linlithgow, a lady of amiable disposition
and great piety who entered cordially into the religious views and schemes
of her husband. They not only attended the ministrations of the settled
Protestant clergy, but for some time maintained a chaplain of their own
family." (page 552)
William and Mary Quarterly,
Volume XII (1903) pp. 45-47 by Lyon G. Tyler vies the names of two sons,
John and Charles. "While his second son, Sir Thomas Fleming, is said
to have emigrated to the Virginia colony and became the progentiro fhte
Virginia branch of the family. Mr. Brock states ('Richmond Standard,'
Feb. 7, 1880) that he married Miss Tarleton and had Tartleton, John and
Charles. Mr. Brock's information it is believed, is derived from
family tradition. There is, nevertheless, no mention as far as I
have been able to ascertian in the records of Virginia, of any Sir Thomas
Fleming. The earliest person of the name was John Fleming, who I
am inclined to believe was the emigrant". (Lyon G. Tyler)
