William Ogilvy married heiress Sarah Morley 24 May 1802, retired and lived in Lindertis, Angus, near his family's estates. I researched him for 'The Episcopal Congregation of Charlotte Chapel Edinburgh' - there's more about his naval career and his marriage on my website. Thanks for this useful site!
