Mary, Queen of Scots

 Mary, Queen of Scots (1542-1587) sometimes known as Mary Stuart or Mary 1 of Scotland was Queen of Scotland from 1542 until her forced abdication in 1567.
     After fleeing to England and throwing herself on the mercy of her Royal cousin, Queen Elizabeth 1 she was placed effectively, in Protective Custody for the next 19 years!
     Throughout this period she was constantly spied on and, after a time, implicated in a plot against Elizabeth 1 herself.
     By early 1587, Mary was found guilty of treason and, subsequently, executed.  Her cousin and rival, ElizabethⅠ, lived on for another 16 years before dying in 1603.
     In a sense though, Mary had her revenge…  Her only son, James Ⅵ of Scotland eventually became JamesⅠof England upon the death Elizabeth who died unmarried and childless.
