    Today in Stewart/Stuart history...

    Today is the 471st anniversary of the coronation of Mary, Queen of Scots, and the 501st anniversary of the Battle of Flodden and the death of James IV. I keep a calendar of dates associated with the Stewart monarchs, centering around Charles I (the basis for my calendar is that of the Anglican Society of King Charles the Martyr). Was wondering if there would be any interest in it here. While some members of SKCM include births and deaths of those in Jacobite succession, they could certainly be omitted if such was thought to be too political here; I offer this as a bit of history, not as a bone of contention.

    BadenochWolf,

    As a historian, I am fascinated with any history anywhere. So, I love to learn anything about it. Have always had a bit of a soft spot for Mary. So thanks for the information.
