General Notes: !The earldom of Menteith, on the execution and forfeiture of Earl Murdoch, became vested in the Crown, and a moiety of it was conferred in 1427 upon Malise Graham, son of Sir Patrick Graham and Euphemia, granddaughter of Robert Stewart, as some compensation for the loss of the earldom palatine of Strathern, one of the oldest and most illustrious of Scottish dignities, which he had inherited from his mother, and which the King had appropriated on the plea that it was a male fief. The other portion was reserved to the Crown, and was afterwards known as the Stewartry of Menteith.
=======================
The earldom of Strathearn was vested in the Crown by David II, who made his nephew Robert the Stewart Earl of Strathearn in 1357. After his accession to the throne as Robert II, Robert gave the earldom as a palatinate (an earldom in which the earl has sovereign power within that territory-basically a small kingdom) to his son David (along with the Earldom of Caithness, which had also belonged by inheritance to Malise, last Celtic earl of Strathearn). However, the old traditions of sovereignty within the earldom became such a political hot potato that it was eventually discontinued.
The earldom passed out of the Stewart family in the early fifteenth century, and devolved upon Malise Graham, grandson of David, Earl of Strathearn and Caithness by his daughter Euphemia, his only child. In 1427, however, while Malise Graham was still in his minority and a hostage in England as well, the acquisitive James I (himself recently returned from a long captivity in England) flagrantly deprived Malise of the earldom and gave it instead to his uncle, Walter Stewart, Earl of Atholl (during the same period the insecure and acquisitive Stewarts enhanced their direct power and control over Scotland by deviously obtaining control of all the most important Scottish earldoms). Subsequently (in 1437) James was murdered, hacked to death by disgruntled nobles-Stewarts among them-led by Sir Robert Graham, uncle of Malise. After 1437 the title remained in abeyance, and in 1484, Strathearn was made a "Stewartry" (a sheriffdom of lands held directly by the Crown) under the Murrays of Tullibardine in Strathearn, descendants of Malise, Steward of Strathearn through his daughter Ada about 1284. The office of Steward (or Stewart) was originally that of "first household officer," and as such, this Malise undoubtedly descended from a younger son of one of the earls of Strathearn the office passing with the lands of Tullibardine.
=========================
In the early fifteenth century the then Graham chief's half-brother Patrick Graham married Robert II's granddaughter, who was the heiress of the new Stewart Earldom of Strathearn, and their son, Malise Graham, was thus heir of Strathearn. Patrick Graham was killed by the Drummonds in 1413, leaving the infant Malise in the guardianship of Patrick's younger brother Sir Robert Graham of Kinpoint. In 1427 James I seized the rich Earldom of Strathearn, giving Malise instead the almost empty title of Earl of Mentieth, and packing him off to England as a hostage-prisoner for almost 26 years. Sir Robert Graham, the boy's uncle and guardian protested in vain, and finally raided the King at Perth and killed the King himself, for which act he was later tortured to death. This line continued, however, and in 1631 the then Earl of Mentieth renewed his claim on Strathearn, but was in 1633 forced to accept the Earldom of Airth instead.
===================
The Royal Burgh of Linlithgow is dominated by the ruins of the ancient Palace and the Cross of the St Michael's Church. Linlithgow is roughly halfway between the two most important Scottish Royal castles situated at Edinburgh and Stirling so was a convenient and scneic location for the Kings of Scotland to retire to to enjoy country pursuits like hunting. Today it is located on the Union Canal and just off the M9 motorway which linking these two cities which is just to the north of Linlithgow Loch. The town is twinned with Guyancourt, France.

General Notes: Robert II, 1316-90, king of Scotland (1371-90), nephew and successor of David II . He was the first sovereign of the house of Stuart, or Stewart, which eventually succeeded to the English as well as the Scottish throne. The son of Walter the Steward and Marjorie, daughter of Robert I, he was regent three times (1333-35, 1338-41, and 1346-58) for David II during the latter's exile and captivity. He thus led the resistance to Edward de Baliol and Edward III of England. Robert rebelled against his uncle in 1363 when David recognized Edward III as his successor. On David's death (1371), however, he succeeded peacefully to the throne, in accordance with the succession law adopted in 1318. Robert's first marriage took place after the birth of several of his sons, but their succession to the throne was legitimized by an act of Parliament in 1373. Through most of his reign the government was dominated by two of these sons-John, Earl of Carrick (later Robert III) and Robert Stuart, later 1st duke of Albany. The Scots in alliance with France fought off several English invasions; they invaded England without assistance in 1388 and won a great victory at Otterburn. Robert was succeeded by Robert III.

General Notes: The greatest significance of the victory at Bannockburn had been the status which it gave to Robert Bruce as champion of the Scottish people in war. But the rehabilitation of Bruce as king was a much longer process, which was not complete by 1314. It was under way by 1308, when the first surviving acts of his government were issued. Its chief agents were the anonymous clerics who staffed the 'king's chapel' or writing-office, which came to be based at the Abbey of Arbroath, and the talented members of the Church hierarchy who had long supported the patriotic cause. Chief among them were Lamberton, Bishop of St Andrews (1297-1328), whose reorganisation of his diocese after a decade of disruption coincided with Bruce's reconstruction of the kingdom. The close working relationship between state and Church was epitomised by the simultaneous meetings of parliament and councils of the Scottish Church in 1321 and 1325. The head of the Bruce administration was the chancellor, a Tironensian monk, Bernard, Abbot of Arbroath (better known, mistakenly, as Bernard of Linton). Quickly, a remarkable spate of charters and letters patent, surpassing the annual output achieved in the reign of Alexander III, flowed from the writing-office under his supervision; there was no more effective way to demonstrate the continuity of kingship than the written charter, issued in the name of Robert, rex Scottorum. From it, too, probably came the Declaration of Arbroath; it is more likely that it was composed by one of Bernard's clerks rather than by the chancellor himself. Another possible author was the canon lawyer, royal clerk and papal chaplain, Master Alexander Kinninmonth, later Bishop of Aberdeen, who was the bearer of the Declaration to the Pope in Avignon. That mission failed in its primary purpose of persuading the Pope to lift the sentence of excommunication from Bruce, but Kinninmonth in 1329 successfully convinced the Pope to permit the anointing of Scottish kings at their enthronement. It was the final step in the restitution of the image and authority of the King of Scots in the person of Robert I.
Bruce's title to the throne was first recognised by the papacy in 1324- His position had been acknowledged by the more pragmatically minded Philip IV of France as early as July 1308, but Philip's death in 1314 and the three brief reigns which followed it delayed the stabilising effects which a renewed alliance with France might otherwise have had. The importance of the Treaty of Corbeil (1326), which restored the pact of 1295, lay in the future, in the 1330s and 1340s. A full restoration of amicable relations with Norway, and a securing of Scotland's frontier in the north and west, came much sooner, in 1312. The English had never managed to effect a complete blockade of Scotland's main trade routes to the Low Countries and the Baltic, and, although the evidence is slight, it is likely that by the early 1320s much of the northern trade had been resumed, despite the permanent loss of colonies of Flemish and German merchants who had formerly been based in Berwick.
With the revival of trade came a closer relationship between the king and his royal burghs. The closer involvement of the burgesses in the affairs of the kingdom can be traced to 1296, when, at French insistence, the seals of six burghs had been attached to the Treaty of Paris. Although the 'coming of the burgesses to parliament' is sometimes dated to the Cambuskenneth assembly of 1326 or to 1357, when they were formally made a separate, third estate, representatives of the burghs had probably been in attendance at the parliament which approved the French treaty in 1296 and they were consulted at the time of a parliament in April 1312 about taxes and military service. War taxation, the strategic importance of the east-coast ports and feu-ferm charters (granted to Aberdeen in 1318 and Edinburgh in 1328) all point to a growing importance of the role played by the burghs in the community of the realm which would continue throughout the rest of the century.
The reign saw not only the careful re-establishment of the accustomed rights of the crown but a calculated recasting of a number of aspects of feudal kingship. Legislation, especially the corpus of laws promulgated by the Scone parliament of December 1318, was a reworking of the old interspersed with the new. The collection of laws known as Regiam Majestatem, which dates from the same period and would remain the main compendium of Scots law for over three centuries, contained a number of recent English influences but stressed the association of Scots law with that epitome of Scottish kingship, David I. Not for the first time, change was cast in the clothes of continuity. The success of the device can be judged by the number of references in later centuries to the laws and custom of 'good King Robert'. King and people were linked through the bond of law and custom as well as by the sanction of the Church and the mythology of a new national history.
The experience of the wars with England had underlined the need for a change in military tactics and technology. The armoured knight was no longer the ultimate battlefield weapon which he had been in the twelfth century. It had been the concentrated firepower of crossbowmen which had wreaked havoc at Falkirk. Much military service, as a result, was converted into archer service when the lands involved were small or being regrouped. The armoured knight was not declared redundant, but he occupied a lesser place in the Scottish army of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.;
The confusions of a civil war inevitably brought about spoils for the loyal supporters of Robert Bruce and a measure of retribution for the backers of the Balliol/Comyn cause. There was no planned, blanket act of attainder, either in 1306 or later, but neither was there any mass restoration of the disinherited, despite opportunities afforded in the peace of 1323 and in 1328. Bruce was too careful to risk alienating the great earls by an over-hasty application of the stick of forfeiture. At times it was natural death rather than royal action which broke up estates; a third of the forty-two leading noble families failed in the male line between 1320 and 1350.The reward of the king's most loyal servants was one of the natural processes of medieval kingship and the rise of men such as Thomas Randolph, created Earl of Moray in 1312, was part of it. Also a part of the natural order of things was the strengthening of the landed holdings of members of the royal house itself, and the Bruce/Stewart connection would emerge from the war in far greater control of the west than before. The causes of it are more complicated than a royal vendetta, but the fact is simple enough: there was a major redistribution of land and power during the reign. A major part of the consolidation of the kingdom stemmed from the unusually large amount of patronage available to Bruce.
By 1314 minds had to be made up. There was no room left to sit on either fence, between holdings in England and Scotland or between the rival factions in the civil war. About a dozen magnates suffered forfeiture. The bulk of these lands were granted out again, a demonstration of the prudent conservatism of a King whose position was still vulnerable; but they went largely to a score of his most loyal supporters. The names of Comyn, Balliol and Soules did not disappear altogether but there was no room left for them at the top of the feudal hierarchy. In their place were Randolphs, Douglases, Murrays, Stewarts - and Bruces. The middle ranks of the baronage echoed as never before to names such as Hay, Keith and Seton. Both the nature and extent of royal power and the personnel of the nobles who sustained it in their own territories had been transformed.

The oldest historical record regarding Dalkeith is contained in a grant of lands of Balnetuth (Dalkeith) by Peter de Graham described as
Lord of Dalkeith', in favour of the monks of the Cistercian Order. This was in the reign of William the Lion. Peter de Graham's son, Sir Henry de Graham confirmed this grant at some date between 1153 and 1159. The lands were held by four generations of the Grahams, living in the Castle, a portion of which still forms part of the house. Sir John de Graham was first a supporter of Balliol, but subsequently transferred his allegiance to Robert Bruce - whereupon Edward II declared his lands forfeit only twelve days before Bannockburn. Sir John retained full possession and died in 1337. His son John resigned the lands in 1341 - 42, in favour of Sir William Douglas of Lothian. It is not known how or why this transfer was made. The Douglas family had possession of Dalkeith for many generations.

General Notes: King of England, was the youngest son of Henry II. by Eleanor of Guienne, and was born in 1166. Early named governor of Ireland, he was sent over, in 1185, to complete its conquest, but such was his imprudence that it was found necessary to recall him; and on the death of his father he was left without any provision, which procured for him the name of Sans Terre, or Lackland. His brother Richard, on coming to the throne, conferred on him the earldom of Mortaigne in Normandy, and various large possessions in England, and married him to the rich heiress of the Duke of Gloucester. Notwithstanding this kindness, he had the ingratitude to form intrigues, in conjunction with the King of France, against Richard, during his absence in Palestine; but Richard magnanimously pardoned him, and at his death (1199) left him his kingdom, in preference to Arthur of Brittany, the son of his elder brother, Geoffrey. Some of the French provinces, however, revolted in favour of Arthur; but John ultimately recovered them, and his nephew was captured, in 1202, and confined in the Castle of Falaise, whence he was subsequently removed to Rouen, and never heard of more. Suspected of the murder of Arthur, the states of Brittany summoned John to answer the charge before his liege lord, King Philip; and upon his refusal to appear, the latter executed the sentence of forfeiture against him; and thus, after its alienation from the French crown for three centuries, the whole of Normandy was recovered.
A quarrel with the Pope, Innocent III., who had nominated Stephen Langton to the see of Canterbury, added to the perplexity of the king, whom the Pope excommunicated, and whose subjects he formally absolved from their allegiance (1212). At length John was induced not only to receive Langton as Archbishop of Canterbury, but abjectly to resign his kingdom, by the hands of Cardinal Pandulph, to the holy see, in order to receive it again as its vassal. John had by this time rendered himself the object of such universal contempt and hatred, that the barons determined to limit his power and establish their privileges; and though the Pope censured them, they assembled in arms at Stamford, and immediately marched to London. They were received there without opposition, which so intimidated the king, that he consented to whatever terms they chose to dictate. Thus was obtained (June 1215) that basis of English constitutional freedom known as Magna Carta, which not only protected the nobles against the crown, but secured important privileges to every class of freemen. But while John appeared to be all-complying and passive, he was secretly purposing to disannul the charter. The Pope pronounced a sentence of excommunication on all who should attempt to enforce it; and John, having collected an army of mercenaries, carried war and devastation throughout the kingdom. The barons, taken by surprise, sent a deputation to Philip of France, offering the crown of England to the Dauphin, Louis; who, in May 1216, landed at Sandwich, and proceeded to London, where he was received as lawful sovereign. John was immediately deserted by all his foreign troops, and most of his English adherents; but the report of a scheme of Louis for the extermination of the English nobility arrested his progress, and induced many to return to their allegiance. while the king's affairs were beginning to assume a better aspect, he was taken ill, and died at Newark, October 19, 1216, in the 49th year of his age, and the 17th of his reign.

General Notes: Henry II ruled over an empire which stretched from the Scottish border to the Pyrenees. One of the strongest, most energetic and imaginative rulers, Henry was the inheritor of three dynasties who had acquired Aquitaine by marriage; his charters listed them: 'King of the English, Duke of the Normans and Aquitanians and Count of the Angevins'. The King spent only 13 years of his reign in England; the other 21 years were spent on the continent in his territories in what is now France. Henry's rapid movements in carrying out his dynastic responsibilities astonished the French king, who noted 'now in England, now in Normandy, he must fly rather than travel by horse or ship'.
By 1158, Henry had restored to the Crown some of the lands and royal power lost by Stephen; Malcom IV of Scotland was compelled to return the northern counties. Locally chosen sheriffs were changed into royally appointed agents charged with enforcing the law and collecting taxes in the counties. Personally interested in government and law, Henry made use of juries and re-introduced the sending of justices (judges) on regular tours of the country to try cases for the Crown. His legal reforms have led him to be seen as the founder of English Common Law.
Henry's disagreements with the Archbishop of Canterbury (the king's former chief adviser), Thomas à Becket, over Church-State relations ended in Becket's murder in 1170 and a papal interdict on England. Family disputes over territorial ambitions almost wrecked the king's achievements. Henry died in France in 1189, at war with his son Richard, who had joined forces with King Philip of France to attack Normandy
===============================
Henry II, first of the Angevin kings, was one of the most effective of all England's monarchs. He came to the throne amid the anarchy of Stephen's reign and promptly collared his errant barons. He refined Norman government and created a capable, self-standing bureaucracy. His energy was equaled only by his ambition and intelligence. Henry survived wars, rebellion, and controversy to successfully rule one of the Middle Ages' most powerful kingdoms.
Henry was raised in the French province of Anjou and first visited England in 1142 to defend his mother's claim to the disputed throne of Stephen. His continental possessions were already vast before his coronation: He acquired Normandy and Anjou upon the death of his father in September 1151, and his French holdings more than doubled with his marriage to Eleanor of Aquitane (ex-wife of King Louis VII of France). In accordance with the Treaty of Wallingford, a succession agreement signed by Stephen and Matilda in 1153, Henry was crowned in October 1154. The continental empire ruled by Henry and his sons included the French counties of Brittany, Maine, Poitou, Touraine, Gascony, Anjou, Aquitane, and Normandy. Henry was technically a feudal vassal of the king of France but, in reality, owned more territory and was more powerful than his French lord. Although King John (Henry's son) lost most of the English holdings in France, English kings laid claim to the French throne until the fifteenth century. Henry also extended his territory in the British Isles in two significant ways. First, he retrieved Cumbria and Northumbria form Malcom IV of Scotland and settled the Anglo-Scot border in the North. Secondly, although his success with Welsh campaigns was limited, Henry invaded Ireland and secured an English presence on the island.
English and Norman barons in Stephen's reign manipulated feudal law to undermine royal authority; Henry instituted many reforms to weaken traditional feudal ties and strengthen his position. Unauthorized castles built during the previous reign were razed. Monetary payments replaced military service as the primary duty of vassals. The Exchequer was revitalized to enforce accurate record keeping and tax collection. Incompetent sheriffs were replaced and the authority of royal courts was expanded. Henry empowered a new social class of government clerks that stabilized procedure - the government could operate effectively in the king's absence and would subsequently prove sufficiently tenacious to survive the reign of incompetent kings. Henry's reforms allowed the emergence of a body of common law to replace the disparate customs of feudal and county courts. Jury trials were initiated to end the old Germanic trials by ordeal or battle. Henry's systematic approach to law provided a common basis for development of royal institutions throughout the entire realm.
The process of strengthening the royal courts, however, yielded an unexpected controversy. The church courts instituted by William the Conqueror became a safe haven for criminals of varying degree and ability, for one in fifty of the English population qualified as clerics. Henry wished to transfer sentencing in such cases to the royal courts, as church courts merely demoted clerics to laymen. Thomas Beckett, Henry's close friend and chancellor since 1155, was named Archbishop of Canterbury in June 1162 but distanced himself from Henry and vehemently opposed the weakening of church courts. Beckett fled England in 1164, but through the intervention of Pope Adrian IV (the lone English pope), returned in 1170. He greatly angered Henry by opposing to the coronation of Prince Henry. Exasperated, Henry hastily and publicly conveyed his desire to be rid of the contentious Archbishop - four ambitious knights took the king at his word and murdered Beckett in his own cathedral on December 29, 1170. Henry endured a rather limited storm of protest over the incident and the controversy passed.
Henry's plans of dividing his myriad lands and titles evoked treachery from his sons. At the encouragement - and sometimes because of the treatment - of their mother, they rebelled against their father several times, often with Louis VII of France as their accomplice. The deaths of Henry the Young King in 1183 and Geoffrey in 1186 gave no respite from his children's rebellious nature; Richard, with the assistance of Philip II Augustus of France, attacked and defeated Henry on July 4, 1189 and forced him to accept a humiliating peace. Henry II died two days later, on July 6, 1189.
A few quotes from historic manuscripts shed a unique light on Henry, Eleanor, and their sons.
From Sir Winston Churchill Kt, 1675: "Henry II Plantagenet, the very first of that name and race, and the very greatest King that England ever knew, but withal the most unfortunate . . . his death being imputed to those only to whom himself had given life, his ungracious sons. . ."
From Sir Richard Baker, A Chronicle of the Kings of England: Concerning endowments of mind, he was of a spirit in the highest degree generous . . . His custom was to be always in action; for which cause, if he had no real wars, he would have feigned . . . To his children he was both indulgent and hard; for out of indulgence he caused his son henry to be crowned King in his own time; and out of hardness he caused his younger sons to rebel against him . . . He married Eleanor, daughter of William Duke of Guienne, late wife of Louis VII of France. Some say King Lewis carried her into the Holy Land, where she carried herself not very holily, but led a licentious life; and, which is the worst kind of licentiousness, in carnal familiarity with a Turk."
