"The Marquess married, 6 or 7 August 1626, his cousin, Margaret Douglas, born 1610, second daughter of William, second Earl of Morton; she died 13 March 1678, leaving issue ..."

Note Margaret was not the daughter of the second Earl of Morton but of the seventh. This is probably simply a typographical error. Archibald's mother was Margaret's great-aunt. 1
