Her first husband was William Oliphant, Knight of Aberdalgy. ^[1][2][3] Subsequently, she married David Murray, Knight of Gask and laird of Tullibardine. ^[1][2][3] From her union with David Murray, it appears she had a child, who later became known as Sir David Murray VII of Tullibardine. ^[4] She died after 1445, and her final resting place is in the Collegiate Church at Tullibardine, Perthshire, Scotland. ^[2]
