Edit with form


Mary Waller Scrope was born 1608 in England to Robert Waller (1560-1616) and Anne Hampden (c1560) . She married Adrian Scrope (1601-1660) 29 November 1624 in England.

Biography

In November 1624 Adrian Scrope (1601-1660) married Mary, daughter of Robert Waller of Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire.

Her brother, Edmund Waller (famous English Poet) was the eldest son of Robert Waller (1560-1616) of Coleshill, Herts, by Anne, daughter of Griffith Hampden, his wife; thus he was first cousin to The Patriot, John Hampden. Robert Waller was son of Edmund Waller (1536-1603, aka Edmund Waller I), son of Robert Waller (1517–53), a scion of the Waller family of Groombridge Place, Kent. (A branch of this family was seated later at Newport Pagnell, Buckingham, from whence they removed in the 17th century to Virginia, where they became prominent in early Virginia affairs. See Benjamin Waller, Littleton Waller Tazewell and Edwin Waller)

Footnotes (including sources)

Ω Birth
  • Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, England. Mary was said to have been aged 16 at her marriage to Adrian Scrope, and this is the only hint known about her age.
  • Joseph Foster's "Pedigrees of the County Families of Yorkshire" (The Compiler, London; 1874), p. 332, for the place of birth. The "age 16 at marriage" was on a footnote on Wikitree that linked to a Bishop's Marriage licenses page behind a paywall as FindMyPast.com in the UK, so this can't be confirmed. Some other sites have an exact date of a baptism in 1605, but if this were true, then Joseph Foster would have had the baptism in his book, which he didn't.
