"Lady Monson" she walked in procession at the funeral with the ladies of the Privy Chamber. Material culture An inventory of luxury goods belonging to Margaret and the Earl of Nottingham written by the notary David Moysie in 1606 gives an idea of the material culture of Jacobean courtiers. There were a large number of buttons set with diamonds and rubies, a flask of amber for musk, two bezoar stones, a variety of silver plate including a lemon squeezer and dishes for sausages and eggs, a silver sugar box shaped like a scallop shell, and bed curtains of velvet and of "China stuff." A portrait of the countess attributed to Paul van Somer places her in a rich interior with curtains dressed with bobbin lace and wearing needle lace collar and cuffs. William Monson After her first husband's death, she married William Monson, 1st Viscount Monson in October 1625 at Reigate. She rode with him in the market on the next day and several visits to show off her new husband. They had no children. Margaret died in her house at Covent Garden on 4 August 1639 and was buried at Chelsea.
