- James IV of Scotland Stories from Scotland's past. King James IV of Scotland was the last king to die on the battlefield in Britain. He was the last in a long line of rulers, particularly from Scotland, to meet their end in such a manner. James IV is generally regarded as the most successful of the Stewart monarchs of Scotland, but his reign ended in a disastrous defeat at the Battle of Flodden. James IV was married in 1503 to Margaret Tudor which linked the royal houses of Scotland and England. It led to the Union of the Crowns in 1603. James IV had a sad and ignominious end for he was one of Scotland's most charismatic warrior kings.

It's refreshing to view his legacy as its own for a moment. Many of us are related to many on all sides of these histories & it's can be hard to resist imagining as heroes & villains. Accepting that heroes are flawed also means accepting that villains can be formidable too.
I've been doing my genealogy and found out he is my 13th Great Grandfather on my mothers side!
That's fantastic! Family trees are so interesting, more so when you uncover a gem like that! 😊
He is my 14th GG on my mother's side. so glad I decided to do the family tree!
Me too! Through his illegitimate daughter with Lady Margaret Drummond
I love seeing this. I found out today as well he’s my 15th great grandfather on my mother’s side through his daughter Janet Stewart, (Lady Fleming) . I didn’t even know I had Scottish in me. What an awesome way to find out !
Me too!!! He is my 14th great grandfather on my Mother's side through his illegitimate daughter Lady Catherine Stewart.
Thankyou James 1V is my favourite King and is someone who have more written about
Thanks Tom, he certainly had a very interesting life.
@@HistoryRoadshow James was amazing spoke 7 languages was brave but too chivalric and then being out flanked
1513 and thus killed but as a Scot it saddens me he is not well known even here
I really enjoyed your video. I learned today my 15th Great Grandfather was King James IV. I was able to trace back to Bran Fendigaid of Siluria where the records ended for the parental line. I've still to research the maternal connections. I would enjoy to watch anything you may have on them as well. Again entertaining video. Hello from the US.
Wish I could trace my family back that far! Well done, it's not easy. Thanks for watching 😊
This is interesting. I just found out today James IV was my mothers 16th grandfather, making him my 17th. We are Scottish.
My favorite scottish king and my 14th ggf
Many Thanks for this very interesting & well made vid! Keep the awesome content coming!
Thank you so much for watching and the kind words. Another one on Saturday! 😊
Love this program. Can't wait for the next episode.
Thanks Mary Ann, have a great week 😊
You’re my new favorite for this type of content. Thank you!
Glad to hear it Laurel. Thank you so much 😊
I really enjoy your programs, thank you so much for posting!
Thank you for watching, have a lovely week 😊
I’ve just discovered your channel and really appreciate the content. I’m curious about the Scottish royal family. Do you have any videos about earlier monarchs of Scotland?
Thank you Jenna, much appreciated. Currently only have this video, but more to follow in time. 😊
I so enjoy your videos, and your speaking voice is so calming. Thank you, please keep up the great work. I look forward to watching more videos from you.
Thank you so much! 😊
I've just found out today that my mother who is 52 years old is the 16th granddaughter of James IV, as she has tracked every generation back to the 1300s. What an interesting rabbit hole to go down.
My 11th grandfather James henderson fought and died with him at flodden.
He was first lord of castle fordell
Mary queen of scotts went to one of my ancestors weddings at fordell as well. Very cool to learn more history about them all.
That's amazing! Great story and family history. How far could you go back overall?
@@HistoryRoadshow clan Scott of buccleuch & Balwearie furthest back we have been able to trace is to about 1300-1400s family immigrated to the US in the 1600s love learning history of the middle ages. Taking classes on them in general but especially Scotland Its so rich in history.
surname is Scott, found the henderson family connection was by marriage his son married Marion Scott Was super cool to learn about the hendersons and their connection to fighting for James IV so been studying more about James IV.
Clan scott also helped support Robert de Bruce which was super interesting to read about knew the history about him from college but didn't realize clan Scott had involvement as well.
That's great, especially as you can go so far back! I've just recently had my DNA done get results beginning of next month. I'm really excited to see what that brings up! Really appreciate you watching the video, have a lovely weekend 😊
Hi Jon! Finding more of the episodes that you narrate! I love ancient history and since I'm recovering from three strokes I can indulge in study! My name is Cheryl and I live in Jacksonville FL USA! Keep up the great work! To make you laugh, I hear your voice when I read Shakespeare!
Glad you enjoy it, Cheryl, the worrying bit is you hear my voice when reading 😮 What would William think! Enjoy your week and thanks for watching 😊
@@HistoryRoadshow I think William would be rightly honored and mightily pleased to lend your voice to his writings!
He's my 19th great-grandfather on my dad's side.
My 16th Great Grandfather through his illegitimate Daughter, Lady Catherine Stewart. Another important ancestor closer along the way is my 11th Great Grandfather Lord John Lindsay, 17th Earl of Crawford. John was a Covenanter and treasurer of Scotland! 🏴 👑
Superb, well-written and evocative holistic account of James IV’s reign. Quite enjoyable-I just wish it were longer and even more detailed…
I would enjoy it if you did videos on *both* one of Scotland’s weakest kings-John Baliol, the vassal and prisoner of the English-*and* Scotland’s greatest monarch, Robert the Bruce.
Thank you. I did Robert the Bruce just under a year ago. You'll find it in the channel.listings. 😊
Both king James lV and Thomas Howell are my 16th great grandfathers.
No reference to his little dalliance with the ladies of the court, which are in the family trees of quite a number of people. They have a story too which is very interesting.
I'm desended from James V...wrong side of the blanket though.
That's great, and I bet it's the first person you point too on your family tree? 😊
@@HistoryRoadshow actually the one we point out first is our Scottish highway robber who stole from the English. Lol
The plot thickens Breandan 😳
That’s cool I’m descended from his illegitimate daughter
@@kerrim2715 Yes. Me too. My 16th great grandmother was the daughter of one of his many mistresses. This daughter went on to become governess to the young Mary, Queen of Scots. (Quite a high position in those days).
He's my 19th great-grandfather on my dad's side. I can trace back to Robert the Bruce.
I just found out he is my 14th great grandfather on my dads side
😂 i WAS expecting it to be called The King's Head!
Sir marmaduke constable commanded the English left at flodden james attacking his father in law henry. Strange times
I just found out James IV is my ancestor via Isabella
I read that King James IV was born at Stirling Castle.
He was born at Holyrood Abbey! Thanks for watching 😊
Stirling
He was killed in combat at Flodden Field...England...what they were doing There????
In accordance to the ‘Auld Alliance’ James felt it was his duty to invade England after Henry VIII declared war on France.
As Henry VIII declared war on France due to his alliance with Maximillian I of the Holy Roman Empire and Ferdinand II of Aragon, James invaded England in order to fulfill his alliance with France. He was beaten by the forces of Thomas Howard, under the regency of Henry’s first wife Catherine of Aragon (Ferdinand’s daughter).
@@thenablade858 Yes, you are right, and I am very thankful. Thanks to you I remember the “Cambrais League’( or Cambray, not sure )
