Robert Stewart, II, King of Scots

Notes:

**********
(The following is from "The Munro Beacon" - Vol. 35, No. 3 - "Reign of the House of Stewart (Stuart)" - by Liam Paterson.)

«i»Robert II (1371-1390) Robert was grandson to Robert the Bruce and was supposed to become king upon that great monarch's death, but the subsequent birth of David II prevented him taking the throne - for forty-odd years anyway. Instead as a 'high steward' of Scotland (where the name Stewart derives from), he served as regent until David was able to take up his kingship. This did not last long. Following the Battle of Neville's Cross, David was captured and Robert took over as regent once again. It was only in 1371 that Robert was officially crowned king following David's death, but he was an old man by medieval standards and he seems to have been too infirm to engage in kingly activities such as leading his armies into battle. He died in 1390 and was succeeded by his son, Robert III.«/i»
