    Scotland History Tours is here for people who want to learn about Scottish history and get ideas for Scottish history tours. I try to make videos which tell you tales from Scotland's past and give you information about key dates in Scottish history and historical places to visit in Scotland. Not all videos are tales from Scotland's history, some of them are about men from Scotland's past or women from Scotland's past. Basically the people who made Scotland. From April 2020 onward I've tried to give ideas for historic days out in Scotland. Essentially these are days out in Scotland for adults who are interested in historical places to visit in Scotland.
    As a Scottish history tour guide people ask: Help me plan a Scottish holiday, or help me plan a Scottish vacation if your from the US. So I've tried to give a bit of history, but some places of interest in Scotland as well.

    He would have the Tudor blood, as James V was the son of Margareth Tudor.... Mary did go on to marry her cousin and thereby giving James VI a stronger claim, but the Earl of Moray was still a great grandson of Henry VII of England

      I might be wrong but I heard that they didn't actually call themselves Tudors but that they called themselves Richmond's . Something about not wanting to associate with their Welsh roots

    • @mariannekalleberg4793
      @mariannekalleberg4793 4 месяца назад +2

      Yes, Tudor is a name they were given later. Richmond was in use, but I believe they used any title they had connecting them to the English throne as much as possible. They were after all usurpers, even if Margareth was born as princess of England

    I'd not drawn the connection with the treaty of Rouen. I may have read it and it just didn't click. But untii you narrated the story, I didn't link the Summer Queen with the Treaty, and the machinations that went on.
    Just alway assumed that the marriage to Mary of Guise the more important, but Madeline's brief life had more impact than a dusty old tome has related. Her Dsd, Francis I must have been livid and mad with grief when she passed away only 6 months later.
    Fascinating telling of the tale. Bruce

    Just FYI, at 1:45 you shared a royal portray while referring to Madeleine's father, Francis I of Valois. However the portray is actually of his son and successor, and brother to Madeleine, Henri II - He is the one who died following a head injury at a tournament.

    @9:55 you say “but if this James had become James VI, then he wouldn’t have had the Tudor blood that was passed to Mary Queen of Scots” but James Stewart, the illegitimate son of James V and Margaret Erskine did have the Tudor blood. The Tudor blood came from Margaret Tudor, who was the mother of James V. So every child of James V had the Tudor blood, regardless of who their mother was.

    • @ScotlandHistoryTours
      @ScotlandHistoryTours  4 месяца назад +1

      Aye apologies, James VI. In him you get a double dunt of Margaret's blood that needed Mary. Apologies for the poor explanation
