Marriage Notes:
"George (Maule), second Earl of Panmure, was also a supporter of the Royalist cause, and on his return home from abroad in 1650 was appointed colonel of the Forfarshire horse. At their head he fought at the battle of Dunbar 3 September 1650, and was wounded at Inverkeithing 20 July 1651. The following year, however, finding further action unavailing, he made his peace with General Monck, and does not seem to have taken any further prominent part in public affairs. He succeeded his father in 1661, and was served heir to him 1 April 1662 and 12 May 1663. Perhaps his best claim to remembrance is the fact that he built a new house at Panmure from the designs of John Milne, the King's master-mason, who, however, died in 1667, and it was only completed by Alexander Nisbet after the Earl's death, which occurred 24 March 1671.
He married (contract 7 March 1645 ) Jean Campbell, eldest daughter of John, Earl of Loudoun, Lord Chancellor of Scotland. By her, who died before 20 August 1703, he had issue"
