The '''House of Stuart''', originally spelt '''Stewart''', also known as '''the Stuart dynasty''', was a [[dynasty|royal house]] of [[Kingdom of Scotland|Scotland]], [[Kingdom of England|England]], [[Kingdom of Ireland|Ireland]] and later [[Kingdom of Great Britain|Great Britain]]. The family name comes from the office of [[High Steward of Scotland]], which had been held by the family progenitor [[Walter fitz Alan]] ({{Circa|1150}}). The name Stewart and variations had become established as a family name by the time of his grandson [[Walter Stewart, 3rd High Steward of Scotland|Walter Stewart]]. The first monarch of the Stewart line was [[Robert II of Scotland|Robert II]]; he and his descendants were monarchs of Scotland from 1371 and of England, Ireland and Great Britain from 1603, until 1714. [[Mary, Queen of Scots]] (r. 1542–1567), was brought up in France where she adopted the French spelling of the name Stuart.

In 1503, [[James IV]] married [[Margaret Tudor]], thus linking the reigning royal houses of Scotland and England. Margaret's niece, [[Elizabeth I of England]] died without [[Issue (genealogy)|issue]] in 1603, and James IV's and Margaret's great-grandson [[James VI of Scotland]] acceded to the thrones of England and Ireland as James I in the [[Union of the Crowns]]. The Stuarts were monarchs of Britain and Ireland and its growing [[British Empire|empire]] until the death of [[Anne, Queen of Great Britain|Queen Anne]] in 1714, except for the period of the [[Commonwealth of England|Commonwealth]] between 1649 and 1660.{{refn|The [[Earl of Galloway|Earls of Galloway]] are the senior surviving line of the Stuarts. They are descended from a line which originated from the second son of [[Alexander Stewart, 4th High Steward of Scotland]], and are not members of the Stewart/Stuart royal line; however, they are part of the peerage.|group=note}}

In total, nine Stewart/Stuart monarchs ruled Scotland alone from 1371 until 1603, the last of whom was James VI, before his accession in England. Two Stuart queens ruled the isles following the [[Glorious Revolution]] in 1688: [[Mary II of England|Mary II]] and [[Anne, Queen of Great Britain|Anne]]. Both were the Protestant daughters of [[James II of England|James VII and II]] by his first wife [[Anne Hyde]] and the great-grandchildren of James VI and I. Their father had converted to Catholicism and his new wife gave birth to a son in 1688, who was to be brought up as a Roman Catholic; so James was deposed by Parliament in 1689, in favour of his daughters. However, neither daughter had any children who survived to adulthood, so the crown passed to the [[House of Hanover]] on the death of Queen Anne in 1714 under the terms of the [[Act of Settlement 1701]] and the [[Act of Security 1704]].  The House of Hanover had become linked to the House of Stuart through the line of [[Elizabeth Stuart, Queen of Bohemia]].

After the loss of the throne, the descendants of James VII and II continued for several generations to attempt to reclaim the Scottish and English (and later British) throne as the rightful heirs, their supporters being known as [[Jacobitism|Jacobites]]. Since the early 19th century, when the James II direct line failed, there have been no active claimants from the Stuart family. The current Jacobite heir to the claims of the historical Stuart monarchs is a distant cousin [[Franz, Duke of Bavaria]], of the [[House of Wittelsbach]]. The senior living member of the royal Stewart family, descended in a legitimate male line from Robert II of Scotland, is [[Earl Castle Stewart|Andrew Richard Charles Stuart, 9th Earl Castle Stewart]].

== Origins ==
The ancestral origins of the Stuart family are obscure—their probable ancestry is traced back to [[Alan fitz Flaad]], a [[Breton people|Breton]] who went to England not long after the [[Norman Conquest]].<ref>{{cite book |last=Houts|first=Elisabeth van| editor-last1=Crick | editor-first1=Julia | editor-last2=Houts |chapter=Invasion and Migration| editor-first2=Elisabeth van | title=A Social History of England, 900–1200 | publisher=Cambridge University Press | date=2011| isbn=978-1-139-50085-2 | url=https://www.google.com/books/edition/A_Social_History_of_England_900_1200/mM6OA8wtPOYC?kptab=editions&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwihoaDK9ruRAxWqTkEAHbQHINwQmBZ6BAgNEAg | page=229}}</ref>  Alan had been the hereditary steward of the [[Bishop of Dol]] in the [[Duchy of Brittany]];<ref name="bartlett">Bartlett, ''England Under the Norman and Angevin Kings, 1075–1225'', 544.</ref> Alan had a good relationship with [[Henry I of England]] who awarded him with lands in [[Shropshire]].<ref name="bartlett" /> The FitzAlan family quickly established themselves as a prominent [[Anglo-Normans|Anglo-Norman]] noble house, with some of its members serving as [[high sheriffs of Shropshire]].<ref name="bartlett" /><ref>Lieber, ''Encyclopædia Americana'', 30.</ref> It was the son of Alan named [[Walter FitzAlan]] who became the first hereditary [[high steward of Scotland]], while his brother William's family went on to become [[earls of Arundel]].

When the civil war in the [[Kingdom of England]], known as [[The Anarchy]], broke out between [[Empress Matilda]] and [[Stephen of England|King Stephen]], Walter had sided with Matilda.<ref name="king">King, '' The Anarchy of King Stephen's Reign'', 249.</ref> Another supporter of Matilda was her uncle [[David I of Scotland]] from the [[House of Dunkeld]].<ref name="king" /> After Matilda was pushed out of England into the [[Count of Anjou|County of Anjou]], essentially failing in her attempt for the throne, many of her supporters in England fled also. It was then that Walter followed David up to the [[Kingdom of Scotland]], where he was granted lands in [[Renfrewshire]] and the title for life of lord high steward.<ref name="king" /> The next monarch of Scotland, [[Malcolm IV]], made the high steward title a hereditary arrangement. While high stewards, the family were based at [[Dundonald, South Ayrshire]], between the 12th and 13th centuries.

The sixth high steward of Scotland, [[Walter Stewart, 6th High Steward of Scotland|Walter Stewart]] (1293–1326), married [[Marjorie Bruce|Marjorie]], daughter of [[Robert the Bruce]], and also played an important part in the [[Battle of Bannockburn]] gaining further favour. Their son [[Robert II of Scotland|Robert]] was heir to the [[House of Bruce]], the Lordship of Cunningham and the Bruce lands of [[Bourtreehill]]; he eventually inherited the Scottish throne when his uncle [[David II of Scotland|David II]] died childless in 1371.

In 1503, [[James IV]] attempted to secure peace with [[Kingdom of England|England]] by marrying [[Henry VII of England|King Henry VII]]'s daughter, [[Margaret Tudor]]. The birth of their son, later [[James V]], brought the House of Stewart into the line of descent of the [[House of Tudor]], and the English throne. Margaret Tudor later married [[Archibald Douglas, 6th Earl of Angus]], and their daughter, [[Margaret Douglas]], was the mother of [[Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley]]. In 1565, Darnley married his half-cousin [[Mary, Queen of Scots]], the daughter of [[James V of Scotland|James V]]. Darnley's father was [[Matthew Stewart, 4th Earl of Lennox]], a member of the [[Stewart of Darnley]] branch of the House. Lennox was a descendant of [[Alexander Stewart, 4th High Steward of Scotland]], also descended from [[James II of Scotland|James II]], being Mary's [[heir presumptive]]. Thus Darnley was also related to Mary on his father's side and because of this connection, Mary's heirs remained part of the House of Stuart. Following [[John Stewart of Darnley]]'s ennoblement for his part at the [[Battle of Baugé]] in 1421 and the grant of lands to him at [[Aubigny-sur-Nère|Aubigny]] and [[Concressault]], the Darnley Stewarts' surname was gallicised to ''Stuart''.

Both Mary, Queen of Scots, and Lord Darnley had strong claims on the English throne through their mutual grandmother Margaret Tudor. This eventually led to the accession of the couple's only child [[James VI and I|James]] as king of Scotland, England, and Ireland in 1603. However, this was a [[personal union]], as the three Kingdoms shared a monarch, but had separate governments, churches, and institutions. Indeed, the personal union did not prevent an armed conflict, known as the [[Bishops' Wars]], breaking out between England and Scotland in 1639.<ref> {{cite book |last=Cust |first=Richard |date=2005 |title=Charles I: A Political Life |publisher=Pearson/Longman |page=251 |isbn=9781405859035}}</ref> This was to become part of the cycle of political and military conflict that marked the reign of [[Charles I of England]], Scotland and Ireland, culminating in a series of conflicts known as the [[War of the Three Kingdoms]]. The trial and execution of Charles I by the English Parliament in 1649 began 11 years of republican government known as the [[English Interregnum]]. Scotland initially recognised the late King's son, also called [[Charles II of England|Charles]], as their monarch, before being subjugated and forced to enter Cromwell's Commonwealth by [[George Monck, 1st Duke of Albemarle|General Monck]]'s occupying army. During this period, the principal members of the House of Stuart lived in exile in [[mainland Europe]]. [[Charles II of England|Charles II]] returned to Britain to assume the three thrones in 1660 with the support of General Monck, but dated his reign from his father's death eleven years before.

In feudal and dynastic terms, the Scottish reliance on French support was revived during the reign of [[Charles II of England|Charles II]], whose own mother was French. His sister [[Henrietta Anne Stuart|Henrietta]] married into the French royal family. Charles II left no legitimate children, but his numerous illegitimate descendants included the [[dukes of Buccleuch]], the [[dukes of Grafton]], the [[dukes of Saint Albans]] and the [[dukes of Richmond]].

The Royal House of Stuart became extinct with the death of Cardinal [[Henry Benedict Stuart]], brother of [[Charles Edward Stuart]], in 1807.
