Elizabeth de Burgh
Queen Elizabeth 1 of Scots
Elizabeth is likely to have met Robert the Bruce at
the English court, and they were married in 1302 at
Writtle, near Chelsford, Essex, England.
Robert and Elizabeth were crowned as King and Queen
of the Scots at Scone in March 27, 1306. This was in
defiance of English rule of Scotland, and Elizabeth,
with other family members, was sent to Kildrummy
castle for safety under the protection of the king's
brother Nigel.
After the defeat of the Scots at the Battle of Methven
the English laid siege on the castle containing the
Royal party. The seige was finally broken when a
blacksmith was bribed with ``all the gold he could
carry`` to set fire to the corn store. Bruce's brother,
along with all the men from the castle, were hung and
beheaded, his sister Mary and the Countess of Buchan
were on imprisoned in wooden cages that were erected
on the walls of Berwick and Roxburgh castles while his
12 year old daughter Marjorie was sent to a nunnery.
Due to Edward's unwillingness to anger the Earl of
Ulster, Elizabeth was placed under house arrest in
England.
It was not until eight years later, after the English
were defeated at Bannockburn, that Elizabeth finally
released, in exchange for captured English nobles.
Elizabeth gave birth to two sons and two daughters:
John, Matilda, Margaret and David (the future king
David II of Scotland).
Elizabeth Bruce died on the October 27, 1327 at Cullen
Castle, Banffshire and is buried in Dunfermline. Her
husband died eight months later.
