Elizabeth Maitland was the daughter of Charles, 6th earl of Lauderdale, and Elizabeth Ogilvy. She first married James Ogilvy of Inchmartin in 1739, and after his death married General Robert Anstruther, son of Sir Robert Anstruther of Balcaskie, in 1765. He had acquired Balgarvie estate, near Cupar, Fife. They had one son, Philip, before Robert died in 1767. Elizabeth remained at Balgarvie House through her widowhood, dying in 1804.
