Notes |
- This ancestral lineage of Robert the Bruce 1274-1329 is incorrect. His father was Robert de Brus, 6th Lord of Annandale, preseded by Robert 5th, Robert 4th, etc. Lineage people need to be reviewed, detached or deleted, and correct lineage linked.

Notes |
- In the 1995 film Braveheart, Robert the Bruce is incorrectly shown as taking the field at Falkirk as part of the English army; he never betrayed William Wallace (despite having changed sides). Wallace is also alleged to have been a complete supporter of Robert the Bruce, but Wallace was a supporter of the Balliol claim to the throne which Bruce consistently opposed.
