Robert Robertson, born on 7 February 1777, was also 9th Laird of Auchleeks, Perthshire, and Membland Hall, Devon. He married his wife, Bridget, daughter of George Atkinson of Temple Sowerby, Westmorland, on 12 February 1816. Bridget and Amelia, the girls in the portrait, are only two of their children; in total they had five sons and six daughters. In 1836 the family appears to have been living at 18 Harley Street, London.
