Lady Janet Helen of Mar (born 31 January 1946), (née Lane, is the sister of Margaret of Mar, 31st Countess of Mar.〔Charles Mosley, editor, Burke's Peerage, Baronetage & Knightage, 107th edition, 3 volumes (Wilmington, Delaware, U.S.A.: Burke's Peerage (Genealogical Books) Ltd, 2003), volume 2, page 2607 ((The Peerage ))〕 Lady Janet was born Janet Helen Lane in Kenya, the younger daughter of James Clifton Lane (later Master of Mar and Earl of Mar) and his first wife, Millicent Mary Salton, who from the time of her marriage until her death was always known as Mrs Mary Lane and never, as has sometimes been stated, as the Mistress of Mar, a substantive title that can be used only by the senior heiress presumptive. In 1959, the Master of Mar (who succeeded as Earl of Mar in 1965) was officially recognized by the Lord Lyon in the surname ''of Mar''. His son David (Lord Garioch), and his daughters Margaret and Janet were also ''of Mar'' from that time onwards. Lord Garioch died in 1967, and Lady Margaret, the elder co-heiress presumptive of her father, succeeded as the 31st holder of the Earldom in 1975. Lady Janet, the younger co-heiress presumptive, married Lt-Cmdr Laurence of Mar, RN (formerly Laurence Duncan McDiarmid Anderson) on 22 March 1969 and was known as Lady Janet Anderson for only a few months. From October 1969 she and her husband were officially recognized by warrant of the Lord Lyon in the style ''of Mar'', the surname ''Anderson'' being formally abandoned. Laurence, who bears the Mar arms, differenced, by the Courtesy of Scotland, is Garioch Pursuivant of Arms. The style ''of Mar'' is a "name of nobility" and should not be confused with Scottish territorial designations. They have two daughters: * Elizabeth of Mar (b. 17 Jan 1970) * Catherine Jane Kelly (b. 13 May 1971), who under Scots Law retains her maiden name ''of Mar,'' married Stuart Kelly, by whom she has issue.〔The peerage, (Person Page 15062 )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lady Janet of Mar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
