Mary Evelyn Hungerford Crewe-Milnes

Mary Innes-Ker, Duchess of Roxburghe (23 March 1915 – 2 July 2014), previously Mary Evelyn Hungerford Crewe-Milnes, was a daughter of Robert Crewe-Milnes, 1st Marquess of Crewe by his marriage to Lady Margaret Etienne Hannah (Peggy) Primrose, daughter of Hannah Primrose, Countess of Rosebery and Archibald Primrose, 5th Earl of Rosebery.

A god-daughter of King George V, she was the first wife of George Innes-Ker, 9th Duke of Roxburghe. They were married on 24 October 1935, at Westminster Abbey, but divorced in 1953. According to The Daily Telegraph, she was best known for resisting the attempts of her husband to evict her from the family home, Floors Castle.

In 1967 her mother died and left the Duchess an estate at West Horsley, Surrey, including West Horsley Place, a large country house dating from the 16th century. On her own death, this was inherited by her great-nephew Bamber Gascoigne, the grandson of her much older half-sister Lady Annabel Hungerford Crewe-Milnes. In her will, the Duchess also bequeathed her family's collection of over 7500 books, including major and hitherto unknown works of English and French literature, to the library of Trinity College, Cambridge, where both her father and grandfather had studied.
