  Father	Lt.-Col. Alexander John Hew Maclean, 16th of Ardgour,   b. 1 Dec 1880   d. 27 May 1930 (Age 49 years)
  Mother	Hon Muriel Annette Burns,   b. 15 Jan 1893   d. 29 Jan 1969 (Age 76 years)
  Marriage	5 Sep 1918	The Hague, Holland   [2]
  	15th January 1909 Alexander Maclean and the Hon. Muriel Burns became engaged ……………. possibly. The story is told that the couple had met and fallen in love in 1908 or thereabouts when Granny was only 15 so, of course, her family prohibited any contact. However, on the morning of her 16th birthday, she came down to breakfast at Castle Wemyss wearing an engagement ring (Scots law ….) hence my date of 15th January 1909. Around that time, AJHM was packed off to India by the Army (these things could easily be arranged ….), one can easily assume to get him out of the way.
