Vem daterade Jakob V av Skottland?

Jakob V av Skottland, född 10 april 1512 i Linlithgow, död 14 december 1542 i Falkland, kung av Skottland 1513-1542. Han var son till Jakob IV av Skottland och Margareta av England.

Jakob blev kung 1513. Under hans minderårighet leddes styret av en aristokratisk förmyndarregering av växlande sammansättning. 1528 tog han själv parti mot earlen Angus, och fördrev honom ur landet. Jakob orienterade sig utrikespolitiskt mot Frankrike och tog sina bägge gemåler därifrån, vilket ledde till ett spänt förhållande mellan England och Frankrike. 1542 utbröt ett krig mellan Skottland och England vilket slutade med ett katastrofalt nederlag för Skottland.

Kort efter detta avled Jakob V. Han efterlämnade endast ett legitimt barn, dottern Maria Stuart. I ett förhållande med Margaret Erskine, dotter till lord Erskine, föddes en son, James Stewart, 1:e earl av Moray

Gift med 1) 1537 med Madeleine (född 1520, död 1537; dotter till Frans I av Frankrike)

Lady Margaret Erskine (8 October 1515 – 5 May 1572) was a mistress of King James V of Scotland and mother of Regent Moray.

She was a daughter of John Erskine, 5th Lord Erskine and Lady Margaret Campbell.

Euphemia Elphinstone (also written Euphame or Eupheme; born 11 May 1509) was a mistress of James V of Scotland and the mother of his son Robert Stewart, 1st Earl of Orkney, born in 1532, as well as another child who died in childhood. One of her sons with her husband John Bruce was Laurence Bruce of Cultmalindie (1547–1617), the builder of Muness Castle.

She was the second daughter of Alexander Elphinstone, 1st Lord Elphinstone and Elizabeth Barlow or Barlay (c. 1476 – 10 September 1518), an English woman of the household of Margaret Tudor.

The family hailed from Elphinstone near Stirling. Her brother Alexander, Lord Elphinstone, died at Edinburgh following the Battle of Pinkie Cleugh.

Euphemia married John Bruce of Cultmalindie (c. 1507 – March 1547), and had five children: Laurence Bruce, Robert Bruce (born c. 1536), Henry Bruce (born c. 1538), James Bruce (born c. 1540) and Euphamie Bruce (born c. 1542). There is no firm evidence for any death date.

Her children and descendants were significant in the history of the Shetland Islands and Orkney Islands. Laurence Bruce and Robert Stewart and their families were to become closely entwined in the Shetland Islands, of which Laurence Bruce was appointed Sheriff by his half-brother.

According to legend, many people in the Shetland Islands are descended from her; in particular, those named Bruce are supposed to be descended from her children by John Bruce.

Elizabeth Bethune, o Beaton (m. después de 1544), fue una de las amantes de Jacobo V de Escocia. Su hija, Lady Jean Stewart, se casó con Archibald Campbell, V conde de Argyll.

Elizabeth era hija de Sir John Beaton de Creich, un sobrino de James Beaton, Arzobispo de St Andrews. De niña, la hija de Elizabeth, Jean, fue criada en casa de María de Guisa (reina de Escocia como esposa de Jacobo V, y brevemente en la guardería del Príncipe James, Duque de Rothesay, hijo varón y legítimo del rey.​

Posteriormente, Elizabeth se casó con John Stewart, IV Lord Innermeath, con quien tuvo dos hijos, John Stewart (d.1607), y James Stewart, V Lord Innermeath. Elizabeth y su marido John recibieron tierras en la parroquia de Inverkeilor en mayo de 1544. Se casó en segundas nupcias con James Gray.​
