- Sir Andrew had met his future wife first in Scilly; and afterwards accidentally meeting her driving with her cousin Lady Hampden near Charing Cross, the acquaintance was renewed which ripened into love and marriage.
The journals he left behind are varied and full of interest; a paragraph reads "1779 on the 7th March I was married to Miss Anne Graeme, daughter of Henry Graeme, Esq. of Hanwell Heath of which event (in this place) I shall only say I have never had cause to repent, and who is the mother of both my children Captain Graham Eden-Hamond and the Honble.
