Mary Gargrave

[5] Rowland Whyte mentioned the maids of honour and others dancing at Hampton Court in the presence chamber of Anne of Denmark, with a French visitor, the Count of Vaudémont.

[6] Gargrave was of sufficient status to give the queen New Year's Day gifts, and in 1608/9 gave her a rich and expensive petticoat embroidered with Venice gold, silver, and coloured silks.

[9] John Finet described the reception of Isabelle Brûlart, the wife of French ambassador Gaspard Dauvet, Sieur des Marets, at Denmark House in December 1617.

[11] After Anne of Denmark died in 1619 there was "much talk" in London about provision for her servants, Gargrave was to have a pension of £200, a lump sum of £1000, and a protection against lawsuits.

[15] Although King James and later Anne of Denmark passed close to her home on their way to London from Scotland, there is no record of Gargrave meeting them at that time.

Her sister Anne (d. 1634) married Thomas Venables, and secondly, a recusant and royal equerry Sir Edward Bushell.
