Lady Mary Tudor (16 October 1673 – 5 November 1726) was the illegitimate daughter of Charles II of England by his mistress, the actress and singer Mary 'Moll' Davis, a celebrated rival of Nell Gwynn, King Charles' London-born mistress who was also an actress. On 18 August 1687, Lady Mary married Edward Radclyffe, 2nd Earl of Derwentwater (9 December 1655 – 29 April 1705) by whom she had four children:^[1]

• Lady Mary Tudor Radclyffe
• Charles Radclyffe (3 September 1693 – 8 December 1746)
• Hon. Francis Radclyffe

On 23 May 1705, shortly after Lord Derwentwater's death, Mary married Henry Graham. On 26 August 1707, after Graham's death on 7 January 1707, she married thirdly Major James Rooke (died 16 June 1773).

Her sons James and Charles were dedicated Jacobites, who were both executed for rebellion and treason.
