Excerpt from The Autobiography of Anne Lady Halkett
In the memoirs now printed she commences her narrative by allusion to her parents, of whose extraction she declares she had no reason to be ashamed, as her father was descended from the family of the Earl of Tillebardine, and her mother from that of the Earl of Perth. The former dignity was conferred only in 1606, and the latter in 1605, therefore it was only collaterally that her parents could be related to those earls, nor has the degree of Lady Halkett's consanguinity to them been ascertained.
Her father, Thomas Murray, was already tutor to Charles Duke of York in 1605, when that prince was [in his fifth year]. An annuity of two hundred marks was granted to him on the 28th June in that year, the patent for which he surrendered on the 27th Jan. 1613-14.
Little more than a twelvemonth after, Anne Murray lost her mother. There was probably some notice of this event in the leaf now lost from the manuscript which will be partially supplied by the following passage from the printed Life of 1701:
- Her mothers affections who - ever after treated her more as a friend than a child, and sometime before her death made over to her, by assignation, a bond of the Earl of Kinnoul of 2,000 lib. ster., which she received with all gratitude, as a new obligation to be more dutiful and diligent in attending upon her, especially being now more infirm and sickly; which, with great care and concern, she performed, ministering to her all the spiritual and bodily help she was capable to afford.
