[1] Lady Elizabeth Cavendish married Christopher Monck (later Duke of Albemarle) on 30 December 1669 at Whitehall, London.

[1] She went with her husband to Jamaica when he was appointed Lieutenant Governor in 1687; there Monck amassed a small fortune, which Elizabeth acquired and brought with her back to England upon his death in the following year (1688).

Her sister-in-law Elizabeth's stepfather, the Duke of Montagu -- suitably dressed as the Emperor of China -- asked for her hand in marriage and they were wed on 8 September 1692 in Newcastle House, London.

[1] The comedic play The Double Gallant; or, Sick Lady's Cure (1707) was in part based on the story Duchess of Albemarle's marriage to the Duke of Montagu.

[3] "Richard, Lord Ross" -- one of her rejected suitors -- wrote the following lines of poem regarding the marriage:[4] Insulting rival, never boastThy conquest lately won;No wonder if her heart was lost --Her senses first were gone.
