mistress - Elizabeth Stevenson. She married 1st, Dr. Archibald Pitcairn (d.1713), and after the death of Margaret McClure, assumed the alias 'Margaret McKlear' as that of the 5th Earl's wife, and attended on the Earl while he was imprisoned in London in 1716, bringing him funds out of the Winton Estate. On 16th February 1716, Elizabeth came to the Tower and saw the Earl and brought him a sum of £1000 sterling from his estates, she having on 27th January been appointed by him his "factrix" . For this money he gave a receipt. 1 - On a later occasion she brought him a further sum of £5000. This was only discovered in 1724 when she addressed the Commissioners of Forfeited Estates, stated what she had done and told them that, as factrix, she had recouped herself £1120, and claimed the balance of £3879 out of the Estate. She resided at Winton House, holding articles taken from the Seton Palace, for which Seton of Garleton had noted, complaining from France.

In the very rare printed pamphlet, in which this appears, she is said to have put forward some letters to her from a Mrs Corsbie "who was then attending the "said Earl" in prison. This woman had an alias "Margaret McKlear" . The Earl's solicitor Charles Menzies W.S. of the family of Menzies of St. Germains, also deponed that this lady "by favour of the "warders" had access to the Earl. She was in London as a witness for the Earl.
