Alexander Stewart (mayor)
Alexander Stewart was a Canadian politician, who was the mayor of Victoria, British Columbia from 1914 to 1916.
Mariota, Countess of Ross
Mariota, Countess of Ross( Mairead, also called Mary and Margaret; died 1440) was the daughter of Euphemia I, Countess of Ross and her husband, the crusading war- hero Walter Leslie, Lord of Ross.
Upon the death of her brother, Alexander Leslie, Earl of Ross, she became the heir- presumptive of her niece Euphemia II, Countess of Ross although her husband Domhnall of Islay, Lord of the Isles pressed Mariota's superior claim to the earldom.
Domhnall attempted to gain control of the earldom, and sometime after 1405 but before 1411, Domhnall gained control of Dingwall Castle.
In the year after the death of the nominal king Robert III of Scotland( 1406), in August 1407, Domhnall sent emissaries to England to the heir of the throne, the captive James Stewart.
King Henry IV of England sent his own emissaries the following year to negotiate an alliance against Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany, the Guardian of Scotland who was controlling Euphemia and the earldom.
With control over the principal seat of the earldom of Ross and support of the exiled heir to the Scottish throne, in 1411 Domhnall felt strong enough to march against Albany's main northern ally, Alexander Stewart, Earl of Mar.
At the Battle of Harlaw Domhnall failed to inflict a decisive victory, and withdrew back to the western highlands.
In the aftermath, Albany was able to retake Dingwall and seize control of Easter Ross.
In 1415, Euphemia was persuaded by Albany to resign the earldom to his own second son, John Stewart, Earl of Buchan.
This action was challenged by Domhnall of Islay, who continued to claim the earldom on behalf of Mariota.
After the return of King James the latter destroyed the power of the Albany Stewarts, executing the Albany's son and successor Murdoch Stewart, Duke of Albany.
Domhnall had died in 1423, but Mariota continued to enjoy the support of his successor and her own son, Alexander.
Alexander took over her claims, and in 1437 her son was recognized as earl by the king.
She died in 1440.
She had two known children, Alexander and Mariota.
Alexander Stewart, Duke of Albany
Alexander Stewart, Duke of Albany( 7 August 1485), was the second surviving son of King James II of Scotland and his wife, Mary of Gueldres.
He died in 1485 in a duel with the duke of Orléans, by a splinter from his lance.
Alexander Leslie, Earl of Ross
Alexander Leslie, Earl of Ross( died 1402) was a Scottish nobleman.
Born between 1367 and 1382, he was the son of Walter Leslie, Lord of Ross and Euphemia I, Countess of Ross.
In around 1394 he became Earl of Ross and sometime before 1398 he married Isabel Stewart, daughter of Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany.
They had one child, Euphemia.
He died at Dingwall, Scotland on 8 May 1402.
Margaret Tudor
Margaret Tudor (28 November 1489 – 18 October 1541) was Queen of Scots from 1503 until 1513 by marriage to James IV of Scotland and
then, after her husband died fighting the English, she became regent for their son James V of Scotland from 1513 until 1515.
She was born at Westminster Palace as the eldest daughter of King Henry VII of England and Elizabeth of York, and granddaughter of Margaret Beaufort, Edward IV of England and Queen Elizabeth Woodville.
Margaret Tudor had several pregnancies, but most of her children died young or were stillborn.
As queen dowager she married Archibald Douglas, 6th Earl of Angus.
Through her first and second marriages, respectively, Margaret was the grandmother of both Mary, Queen of Scots, and Mary's second husband, Lord Darnley.
Margaret's marriage in 1503 to James IV linked the royal houses of England and Scotland, which a century later resulted in the Union of the Crowns.
Upon his ascent to the English throne, Margaret's great-grandson, James VI and I, was the first person to be monarch of both Scotland and England.
Alexander de Waghorn
Alexander de Waghorn( d. 1416 × 1418), Bishop of Ross, bears a surname that may suggest an origin in the Glasgow area of southern Scotland, though there are other possibilities.
His pre-episcopal life is not very well documented, but when he was provided to the bishopric of Ross in 1398, he already possessed a Bachelorate in Decrees( i.e. canon law) and bore the title Archdeacon of Ross.
It is not known for how long he had held the latter title, but it could have been as early as August 1376, when the last known archdeacon Alexander Man was made Bishop of Caithness.
It was on 17 August 1398, that Avignon Pope Benedict XIII provided Waghorn to the vacant diocese of Ross; the papal mandate of provision informs us that Alexander had been elected by the cathedral chapter to the vacant see, but that because the Pope had previously reserved the see for his own appointment, declared the election invalid.
However," to prevent a long and harmful vacancy" he nevertheless provided Waghorn as bishop.
There is a papal mandate, dated 4 May 1404, in which three churchmen are told to confirm one clerk named William" de Taynof Tain") as Chancellor of Ross because William de Tayn" doubted the validity of his presentation and institution by Alexander, bishop of Ross".
A similar mandate for confirmation, this time issued to the Bishop of Moray( Henry de Lichton) and dated 16 August 1417, was as a result of similar concerns, this time in relation to one John de Kylwos, regarding Kylwos' exchange of the Ross subdeanery for the treasurership, an exchange authorised by Bishop Alexander.
On 30 June 1407, a papal mandate was issued to the Bishop of Dunkeld and the Bishop of Caithness to receive Alexander's oath of fealty to the papal see, and to ensure that a copy of the oath was sent to the papal court by letters patent under Alexander's seal.
This is somewhat of a long period since his provision, and may be explained if some of the secular authorities were opposing his provision.
At this time, there was a power struggle over the province of Ross, the notable participants being Alexander Leslie, Earl of Ross, and ally to the Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany; Domhnall of Islay, Lord of the Isles, a magnate based on the western coast who was pressing his own claim to the earldom; and Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, husband of the deceased Countess of Ross, Euphemia I.
It is possible that Waghorn was a protégé of one of these men and, if he was, the most likely candidate is the Earl of Buchan, namely because he is found witnessing a number of charters of Isabella, Countess of Mar, wife of Buchan's illegitimate son, Alexander Stewart, Earl of Mar.
Bishop Alexander witnessed, at Kildrummy Castle in 1404, Isabella's deed handing over her rights to Buchan's son.
He was at Perth on 18 July 1408, where he attended an ecclesiastical council and witnessed a deed.
He can be found at St Andrews on 4 and 6 February 1414, attending the ceremonies celebrating the receipt of the papal bull which authorised the founding of the University of St Andrews; Bishop Alexander made a sermon on 6 February.
He is found for the last time at Perth on 17 March 1416, witnessing a transumpt made by an ecclesiastical council.
It is not known when he died, but the earliest secure date is 14 February 1418.
William III, Earl of Ross
William( or Uilleam) III, 5th Earl of Ross( d. 1372) was a fourteenth- century Scottish nobleman.
He was the fifth O’ Beolan earl of Ross, descending from the founder of the line, Fearchar of Ross( or Fearchar MacTaggart).
Alexander Stewart, Duke of Rothesay
Alexander Stewart, Duke of Rothesay( 16 October 1430 – 16 October 1430).
Duke of Rothesay is the honour taken by the heir apparent to the Scottish throne, and so it was given to this boy, the fifth child but first son of James I of Scotland and Joan Beaufort.
Alexander, a twin, died in infancy, and his younger twin brother became James II of Scotland.
The twins were born in Holyrood Palace, Edinburgh.
James Stewart, Duke of Ross
James Stewart, Duke of Ross( March 1476 – January 1504) was the second son of King James III of Scotland and Margaret of Denmark.
Alexander Stewart, Duke of Ross
Alexander Stewart, Duke of Ross (30 April 1514, Stirling Castle – 18 December 1515, Stirling Castle) was the fourth and last son of King James IV of Scotland and his queen Margaret Tudor.
He was born after his father was killed at the Battle of Flodden, during the reign of his infant brother King James V of Scotland.
He died in infancy, but during his short life he was heir presumptive to the throne of the Kingdom of Scotland.
