• 19:1619:16, 10 September 2024 diff hist +335 William of Douglas I don't know where the dates came from but they are wrong according Scots Peerage. The 1st mention of his son William as Lord of Douglas was 1289 so his father's death was probably about then. Hugh is never mentioned again after his marriage contract in April 1259 so probably died shortly after. Citation inserted

Coupland was an esquire and did not have any such power. He took King David to Wark Castle until King Edward promised to reward him with a knighthood. Then he was turned over to Queen Philippa and taken to the Tower. I corrected the page number where Penman discusses it which was also wrong.

• 00:1300:13, 24 February 2022 diff hist +320 Domhnall, Earl of Lennox It is not true that Domhamll's 'reign' was noted for its tension, in fact he consistently supported the Bruce cause. And how would one even know that he was 'irritated' especially since very little is in the existing records about him or that he was 'glad' of the capture of the King whom he had supported.. Moreover, although there is a bibliography listed there are no citation in this article. :Marrying off" ais at best a misogynistic phrase.
