General Notes: Husband - Dr. George Buchanan
He born in Scotland about 1698, emigrated to Maryland in 1723, practiced medicine, and was appointed in 1729 one of the commissioners to lay out the town of Baltimore. He was a member of the General Assembly in 1749. His remains were interred in the family burial ground on his estate, called Druid Hill, the name of which he had at first called Auchentorlie, after the family estates in Scotland. Druid Hill, containing 500 acres, remained in possession of his descendants until 1860, when it was sold by Lloyd N. Rogers, to the city of Baltimore for $500,000, and became the beautiful Druid Hill Park.
