Sir Alexander Murray, 3rd Baronet

After the couple had lived a few miserable months under her father's roof, Murray made himself a ‘voluntary outcast’.

There was a brief reconciliation in 1711–12, when he was accepted back into the Baillie household, but his behaviour led to a process for separation being instituted against him, and its completion in 1714 seems to have unbalanced him still further.

After his release, he took an interest in the exploitation of mineral deposits on land his father had purchased in Ardnamurchan, ran up substantial debts and lived for a time in France.

Sir Alexander Murray of Stanhope features as a character in Andrew Drummond's fantasy novel The Books of the Incarceration of the Lady Grange (2016),ISBN 9781530077687.
