Mary Livingston

Mary Livingston

Mary Livingston (c. 1541–1579) was a Scottish noblewoman and childhood companion of Mary, Queen of Scots, one of the famous "Four Marys". As a child, she and three other girls of similar age and standing, chosen by the queen's mother, Mary of Guise, became Queen Mary's ladies-in-waiting. The other three "Marys" were Mary Fleming, Mary Seton and Mary Beaton. Her father, Alexander Livingston, 5th Lord Livingston, was Queen Mary's guardian.

In 1565, Mary Livingston married John Sempill of Bruntschiells. Their son was James Sempill.
