According to Joan Stevens (citation details below), Gen. Francis Le Maistre married "a Quebec lady, daughter of General Crammil". According to this descent, she was named "Margaret Grammie." According to this monograph about General Le Maistre, she was "Margaret (Stuart) Cramahé", and the circumstances of their marriage, on which the author refrains from expanding, are "intruguing" and "possibly legendary." The Dictionary of Canadian Biography entry on the Irish-born Hector Theophilus Cramahé, holder of various military and administrative offices in 18th-century Quebec and Detroit, ends by noting that "Cramahé was so discreet about his 22-year stay in Canada that it has been impossible to discover whom he married or whether he had children." Finally, according to the Dictionary of Canadian Biography (citation details below), Francis Le Maistre's wife was named Margaret Stuart.

From Joan Stevens, "Thomas Le Maistre's 18th Century Diary" (citation details below):

The funeral of Francois Guillaume took place with great ceremony and was followed by many volleys of fire; [Thomas Le Maistre] goes on: "He was much regretted and one may say that he was one of the greatest men this Island has produced, being a great and eloquent orator, and in a word he spoke and wrote as he wished, and his name reflects what he was: master in name, master of spirit, of memory, of eloquence, of prudence, of science, of the spoken word, of thought, of penetration, of pleading, of the pen, of politeness, of wisdom, of goodness and affability. One cannot end his eulogy for he was a real master of all talents."
