Death Notes: Husband - Alexander Wallace
Donald Wallace gives his death year as "about 1740." Another source has 1735.
General Notes: Husband - Alexander Wallace
Twice married, 21 children.
Donald Wallace (1816-1902) letter to his grandson Edward H. Wallace dated 4 Jun 1896 has b. about 1660; d. about 1740. From that letter:
"Tradition says the first Wallace came to Ross[-s]hire as a manager to George McKinrie [Mackenzie (1630-1714)], Earl of Cromerty [Cromarty], and that I am the ninth generation, him my great-great-grandfather, was Alex. Wallace. He was born about 1660; he died about 1740. He was twice married, and had 21 children. He was a very brave man. Lachlin, my great-grandfather, was his son. It was from him that most of the Wallaces in Ross-shire sprung. He [Lachlin] was born 1701, died 1756. He had two sons, three daughters. His youngest son, John, was my grandfather. He [John?] left large offspring. Since the year 1838 he [John?] had 5 sons and 4 daughters. He [John?] died in 1849. His [Alexander's] oldest son, Lachlin, was my great-grandfather; his son John was my grandfather; one of his sons, George, was my father."
Research Notes: Husband - Alexander Wallace
Even though other sources give different approximate birthdates, I'm using the "around 1660" from the letter by Donald Wallace to Ed Wallace. Since the death date was also approximate in the letter, I'm using 1735 from the RootsWeb sources.
Donald was the "Fifth generation in Ross-shire."

The family tree written by Jessie (Wallace) Ross has two wives for Alexander, with four children each. She does not mention Mary Monase. According to Donald Wallace, Alexander had 21 children, quite a discrepancy. Perhaps he had three wives and many children died during childbirth?
These are the only wives and children in Jessie's family tree, source unknown:

Research Notes: Wife - Mary Monase of Kiltearn
http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=alastair&id=I640
Has m. abt 1705. Also have birthdate of Lachlan Wallace as abt. 1710. Depending on when Lachlan was really born and when Alexander married Mary Monase, she may or may not be Lachlan's biological mother.
Alexander was married twice and had 21 children.
The Lack Family genealogy at http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=alastair&id=I640 has Mary Monase of Kiltearn, m. abt 1705.

Research Notes: Husband - William Montacute 2nd Earl of Salisbury
From Wikipedia - William Montacute, 2nd Earl of Salisbury :
William Montacute, 2nd Earl of Salisbury (25 June 1328 - 3 June 1397 ) was an English nobleman and commander in the English army during King Edward III 's French campaigns of the Hundred Years War .
He was born in Donyatt in Somerset , the eldest son of William Montacute, 1st Earl of Salisbury and Catherine Grandisson, and succeeded his father as earl in 1344. Montacute was contracted to marry Joan of Kent , and did so without knowing that she had already secretly married Thomas Holland . After several years of living together, her contract with Montacute was annulled by the Pope in 1349.
In 1350, he was one of the first Knights of the Garter . He was a commander of the English forces in France in many of the following years, serving as commander of the rear guard of the army of Edward the Black Prince 's army in 1355, and again at the Battle of Poitiers in 1356, and further serving in 1357, 1359 and 1360. Later in 1360 he was one of the commissioners that negotiated the Treaty of Brétigny .
During the quieter years that followed the treaty, Montacute served on the king's council. But in 1369 he returned the field, serving in John of Gaunt 's expedition to northern France, and then in other raids and expeditions, and on some commissions that attempted to negotiate truces with the French. Montacute helped Richard II put down the rebellion of Wat Tyler . In 1385 he accompanied Richard on his Scottish expedition.
In 1392/3, he sold the Lordship of the Isle of Man to William le Scrope of Bolton. He married Elizabeth, daughter of John de Mohun, 9th Lord de Mohun of Dunster. The two lived at Bisham Manor in Berkshire and had a son and two daughters. The son, Sir William Montacute, married Lady Elizabeth FitzAlan , daughter of Richard Fitzalan, 11th Earl of Arundel , but was killed in a tournament in 1383, leaving no children. When the elder William Montacute died in 1397 the earldom was inherited by his nephew John Montacute, 3rd Earl of Salisbury . One of William's sisters, Philippa (d. January 5, 1382), married Roger Mortimer, 2nd Earl of March .
