context_page_description: Mary Herbert, Marchioness of Powis, formerly Mary Preston, was the wife of William Herbert, 2nd Marquess of Powis and the mother of William Herbert, 3rd Marquess of Powis.
  Mary was the eldest daughter and co-heir of Sir Thomas Preston, 3rd Baronet, of Furness and his wife, the former Mary Molyneux. She married the Marquess of Powis, then known as Viscount Montgomery because of his father's links with the deposed king James II and VII, in about 1695.

  The couple had six children:
  William Herbert, 3rd Marquess of Powis, who died unmarried
  Lord Edward Herbert, who married Henrietta, daughter of James Waldegrave, 1st Earl Waldegrave, and had one child, Barbara who married a kinsman, Henry Arthur Herbert, later created Baron Herbert of Cherbury in 1743, and Earl of Powis in 1748.
