Notes for Margaret Tudor
Margaret Tudor (28 November 1489 – 18 October 1541) was Queen of Scotland from 1503 until 1513 by marriage to King James IV. She then served as regent of Scotland during her son's minority, and successfully fought to extend her regency. Margaret was the eldest daughter and second child of King Henry VII of England and Elizabeth of York, and the elder sister of King Henry VIII of England.

Margaret married James IV at the age of 13, in accordance with the
Treaty of Perpetual Peace between England and Scotland. Together, they had six children, though only one of them reached adulthood. Margaret's marriage to James IV linked the royal houses of England and Scotland, which a century later resulted in the Union of the Crowns. Following the death of James IV at the Battle of Flodden in 1513, Margaret, as queen dowager, was appointed as regent for their son, King James V. A pro-French party took shape among the nobility, urging that she should be replaced by John, Duke of Albany, the closest male relative to the infant king. In seeking allies, Margaret turned to the Douglases, and in 1514 she married Archibald Douglas, 6th Earl of Angus, which alienated the nobility and saw her replaced as regent by Albany. In 1524, Margaret, with the help of the Hamiltons, removed Albany from power in a coup d'état while he was in France, and was recognised by Parliament as regent, then later as chief counsellor to King James V.

Following her divorce from Angus in 1527, Margaret married her third husband,
Henry Stewart, 1st Lord Methven. Through her first and second marriages, Margaret was the grandmother of both Mary, Queen of Scots, and Mary's second husband, Lord Darnley.

In 1503, Margaret married King James IV. They had six children, of whom only one survived infancy:
• James, Duke of Rothesay (21 February 1507,
Holyrood Palace – 27 February 1508, Stirling Castle).
• Daughter (died shortly after birth 15 July 1508,
Holyrood Palace).
• Arthur Stewart, Duke of Rothesay (20 October 1509,
Holyrood Palace – 14 July 1510, Edinburgh Castle).
James V, born 10 April 1512 at Linlithgow Palace, who died 14 December 1542 at Falkland Palace.
• A daughter, who was born prematurely and died shortly after birth, November 1512,
Holyrood Palace.
Alexander Stewart, Duke of Ross (30 April 1514, Stirling Castle – 18 December 1515, Stirling Castle).

In 1514, Margaret married
Archibald Douglas, 6th Earl of Angus, and had one child:
Margaret Douglas (1515–1577), who married Matthew Stewart, 4th Earl of Lennox, Regent of Scotland from 1570 to 1571.

In 1528, Margaret married
Henry Stewart, 1st Lord Methven. They had no issue.
