[2858] Bruce, Robert (1274-1329), liberator, and, as Robert I, king of Scotland (1306-29). He was originally named Robert de Bruce, and to distinguish him from his father and grandfather, who had the same name, he is often referred to as Robert de Bruce VIII. He is also called Robert the Bruce. As Earl of Carrick it was necesary that he pay homage to King Edward I of England, otherwise he could not retain his Earldom and potential ascension to the Scottish throne. In 1296, Bruce defeated King John de Baliol and thereafter refused to acknowledge another King of Scotland.

He was originally named Robert de Bruce but he is also called Robert the Bruce. As earl of Carrick he paid homage to King Edward I of England, who, in 1296, defeated King John de Baliol and thereafter refused to acknowledge another king of Scotland. Bruce later abandoned Edward's cause and joined other Scottish leaders in taking up arms for the independence of his country.
In 1299, the year after the Scottish patriot Sir William Wallace was defeated by Edward at Falkirk, Bruce (then still in favor with Edward) was made one of the four regents who ruled the kingdom in the name of Baliol. In 1305 he was one of those consulted in the decision to make Scotland a province of England. Bruce proclaimed his right to the throne, and on March 27, 1306, he was crowned king at Scone. Bruce was deposed, however, in 1307 by Edward's army and forced to flee to the highlands and then to the little island of Rathlin on the coast of Antrim (now in Northern Ireland). In his absence all his estates were confiscated, and he and his followers were excommunicated. He continued to recruit followers, however, and in less than two years he wrested nearly all of Scotland from the English. Bruce again defeated the English, with the help of William Wallace, in 1314 in the Battle of Bannockburn, twice invaded England, and in 1323 concluded with King Edward II of England a truce for 13 years. After the accession of King Edward III in 1327, war again broke out, and the Scots won again. In 1328 they secured a treaty recognizing the independence of Scotland and the right of Bruce to the throne.


Bruce later abandoned Edward's cause and joined other Scottish leaders in taking up arms for the independence of his country. In 1299, the year after the Scottish patriot Sir William Wallace was defeated by Edward at Falkirk, Bruce, then still in favor with Edward, was made one of the four regents who ruled the kingdom in the name of Baliol. However, it should be pointed out that the Bruce family had no connection with the capture of Wallace. In 1305 he was one of those consulted in the decision to make Scotland a province of England.

In 1306 he met an old enemy, the Scottish patriot John Comyn, who was the nephew of Baliol; a quarrel occurred, and Bruce stabbed Comyn in a church in Dumfries. He was immediately excommunicated by the Pope. Bruce's action brought the wrath of King Edward I of England who attempted to capture him. The English were perfectly happy to have Scotland as a colony under a somewhat divisionary rule; the menace of a new King of Scotland could not be tolerated. Bruce proclaimed his right to the throne, and on March 27, 1306, he was crowned king at Scone.

Bruce was deposed, however, in 1307 by Edward's army and forced to flee to the highlands and then to the little island of Rathlin on the coast of Antrim (now in Northern Ireland). In his absence all his estates were confiscated, and he and his followers were excommunicated. He continued to recruit followers, however, and in less than two years he wrested nearly all of Scotland from the English. Bruce again defeated the English in 1314 in the Battle of Bannockburn, twice invaded England, and in 1323 concluded with King Edward II of England a truce for 13 years. After the accession of King Edward III in 1327, war again broke out, and the Scots won again.

It was not until 1328 that Scottish independence was once more recognised by the English, at this time with Edward III as their king. In 1328 they secured the Treaty of Northampton which recognized the independence of Scotland and the right of Bruce to the throne. This recognition was duly sealed by way of marriage, as was the custom in these days, with Joanna, sister of Edward marrying Robert's son, David.

One clause in the Treaty was never honoured though. The Stone of Destiny was not returned to Scone. It is from Robert the Bruce's children that a latter great house was born. He was married twice, his first wife being Isabella and his second being Elizabeth. Isabella provided him with one daughter, Marjorie. Marjorie was to become the founder of the Stewart lineage. Elizabeth provided him with four children; Matilda, David, Margaret and John.

Bruce was succeeded by his son, David II. Bruce's nephew, Robert II, who succeeded David, was the first King of the Stuart house of English and Scottish royalty. In his later years Bruce lived in seclusion at Cardross Castle, on the northern shore of the Firth of Clyde, where he died.

It is said that upon his death, Robert the Bruce's heart was taken to the Holy Land by Sir James Douglas. Although this loyal knight died fighting the Moors in Spain the heart was returned to Scotland and buried in Melrose.

[2846] Marjorie Bruce died in a riding accident. Her son, Robert II Stuart was delivered by caesarian section after his mother's death. Marjorie was through her son to become the founder of the Stewart lineage.
