Margaret Tudor 1489-1541
Queen of Scotland
Born in London, the eldest daughter of Henry VII of England, she married James IV of Scotland (1503), Archibald Douglas, the 6th Earl of Angus (1514), and, having divorced him, Henry Stewart, later Lord Methven (1527). She had a significant, enigmatic role in the conflict between pro-French and pro-English factions during the minority of her son, James V of Scotland, for whom she acted as regent. Her great-grandson, James VI of Scotland, inherited the English throne (1603).
