Family
Parents

Siblings
Marion was the second of three children, being preceded by her elder sister Katherine, and followed by her younger brother, Samuel.
Spouse
Marion married Edmond Landon in 1787, the same year as her debut. The marriage was one of convenience for her; the Burstow family was surrounded in scandal at the time, and she had almost no dowry. Over time, however, she has grown to love her husband, though he certainly lacks the tenacity that Marion possesses.
Children
Marion has had five children with her husband, and they comprise one of the largest families in the Ton. She is currently busy trying to orchestrate the marriages of both Elizabeth and Juliet. While it had been her goal to have Elizabeth married off last Season, she now faces the challenge of having to have both of her daughters married off. Her children include:
Elizabeth "Ella" Landon (nee Chatswick) (daughter-in-law)
