| 128. | Robert II Stewart, King of Scots was born on 02 Mar 1315/16 in Paisley, Renfrewshhire, Scotland (son of Walter Stewart, 6th High Steward of Scotland and Marjorie Bruce, Princess of Scots). Notes:
In the late 13th century, Walter Stewart, the 6th High Steward of Scotland, who fought alongside Sir William Wallace and King Robert the Bruce in the Scottish Wars of Independence, was rewarded for his loyalty to King Robert the Bruce by a marriage with Princess Marjorie Bruce, the king's daughter. Walter and Marjorie had a son, Robert Stewart, who became Earl of Strathearn and Menteith. Robert Stewart nearly didn't make it into this world. His mother, Princess Marjorie, was thrown from her horse while she was pregnant. She died from her injuries and Robert was born by an emergency Caesarean section.
When Robert the Bruce's son, King David II, died without any male heir then Robert Stewart, Earl of Strathearn and Menteith, was next in line for the throne. He became King Robert II of Scotland, and founder of the Royal House of Stewart, which ruled Scotland for over three hundred years and in 1603 under King James VI became the ruling dynasty of the combined thrones of the United Kingdom. King James VI of Scotland became known as King James I of the United Kingdom and was the patron of the King James Bible.
The primary residence of the early Scottish kings was Stirling Castle. In the days of Robert the Bruce, Stirling castle would have been primarily a wooden structure. It was in the time of King Robert II that a stone structure began to replace the earlier wooden one. The North Tower of Robert II's era still stands as part of the castle today.
