Find a Grave - Memorial Text,
Scottish Monarch. Robert was the first son of Robert de Brus, 6th Lord of Annandale and Marjorie, Countess of Carrick. When the Scottish revolt against Edward I broke out in July 1297, James Stewart, 5th High Steward of Scotland lead a group of Scots, including young Robert into patriotic resistance. Commands were sent ordering Bruce to support Edward I, yet Robert resisted, continuing to support the revolt. On July 7, Bruce agreed to terms with Edward by a treaty called the Capitulation of Irvine and was pardoned for his recent violence in return for swearing allegiance to King Edward. Shortly after the Battle of Stirling Bridge, Bruce again defected to the Scots. He attacked Annandale and the English-held castle of Ayr. When William Wallace resigned as Guardian of Scotland after his defeat at the Battle of Falkirk he was succeeded by Robert Bruce and John Comyn as joint Guardians. The two men could not work beyond their personal differences and Robert finally resigned as joint Guardian. In July, 1301 King Edward I launched his sixth campaign into Scotland. It was around this time that Robert the Bruce submitted to Edward. However his wavering support of both the English and Scottish armies had led to a great deal of distrust towards Bruce among the community. John Comyn, a much stauncher opponent of the English, had become the most powerful noble in Scotland. In the summer of 1305 John Comyn swore in a secret agreement to forfeit his claim to the Scottish throne in favor of Robert Bruce upon receipt of the Bruce lands in Scotland. Comyn betrayed his agreement with Bruce to King Edward I, and was accused of treachery by Robert. Comyn and Robert met in the Chapel of Greyfriars Monastery in Dumfries on February 10, 1306, where Robert killed Comyn before the high altar. Bruce asserted his claim to the Scottish crown and began his campaign by force for the independence of Scotland. Six weeks after Comyn was killed in Dumfries, Bruce was crowned King of Scots by Bishop William de Lamberton at Scone, near Perth on March 25, 1306. On July 7, King Edward I died, leaving his heir, Edward II, to rule. In April, 1307 Bruce won a small victory over the English at the Battle of Glen Trool, before defeating Aymer de Valence, 2nd Earl of Pembroke at the Battle of Loudoun Hill. In March 1309, he held his first Parliament at St. Andrews, and by August, he controlled all of Scotland north of the River Tay. The next three years saw a host of battles: Linlithgow in 1310, Dumbarton in 1311, Perth in 1312, Castle Rushen in Castletown in 1313, Stirling Castle in 1314 and the Battle of Bannockburn, in which Robert secured Scottish independence from England. Robert had been suffering from a serious illness first documented in 1327. It is thought that he mat have suffered from one of many diseases, including leprosy, tuberculosis, syphilis or even a neurologic deficit. His last journey was a pilgrimage to the shrine of Saint Ninian at Whithorn. Robert died June 7, 1329, at the Manor of Cardross, near Dumbarton. The king's body was embalmed and his sternum was sawn to allow extraction of the heart, which Sir James Douglas placed in a silver casket to be worn on a chain around his neck, then to be taken on a crusade against the Saracens and carried to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, before being brought back to Scotland. The body was taken to Dunfermline Abbey, and Robert I was interred beneath the high altar. On February 17, 1818, workmen breaking ground for the new parish church to be built on the site of the ancient Dunfermline Abbey uncovered a vault before the location of the former abbey high altar. On November 5, 1819 the remains of a wood coffin, containing a skeleton shrouded in gold cloth were exhumed. The sternum was found to have been sawn open from top to bottom. Robert the Bruce's remains were ceremonially re-interred in the vault in Dunfermline Abbey on November 5, 1819. They were placed in a new lead coffin, into which was poured 1,500 pounds of molten pitch to preserve the remains, before the coffin was sealed.

There is another memorial but with the name listed as Sir Robert Le Brus. I have always known him by De Bruce or De Brus. I add this link only because I do not feel right in deleting the memorial I manage as others, including myself, have left flowers and messages.Sir Robert Le Brus

Marjory Campbell ,
geboren op 11 april 1254,
Find a Grave - Memorial Text,
3rd Countess of Carrick, daughter of Niall Neil Campbell, Earl of Carrick and Margaret Stewart Marjorie of Carrick (also Margaret; c. 1253 or 1256 – soon bef. 9 November 1292) was Countess of Carrick, Scotland, from 1256 to 1292, and is notable as the mother of Robert the Bruce.
Marriages
She was the daughter and heiress of Niall Mac Dhonnchad, 2nd Earl of Carrick on her father's side. Her mother's father was Walter Stewart. Her father transferred the title of chieftain to his nephew Ronald and gave the earldom of Carrick to Marjorie, making her 2nd Countess of Carrick in her own right. Her first husband was Adam of Kilconquhar, who died during the Eighth Crusade in 1271. Then, as the story goes, a handsome young man arrived one day to tell her of her husband's death in the Holy Land. He was Robert de Brus, 6th Lord of Annandale, and he had been a companion-in-arms of Adam of Kilconquhar. Marjorie was so taken with him that she had him held captive until he agreed to marry her at Turnberry Castle in 1271. He became Earl of Carrick jure uxoris (in right of his wife). Their children were:
Christina Bruce
Robert the Bruce.
Isabel Bruce (1272–1358), married King Eric II of Norway.
Niall or Nigel Bruce, executed 1306 in Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland, England.
Edward Bruce.
Sir Thomas Bruce, executed 1307.
Alexander Bruce, executed 1307.
Mary Bruce, married
Sir Niall Campbell
Sir Alexander Fraser of Touchfraser and Cowie.
Matilda Bruce, married Aodh, Earl of Ross
Elizabeth Bruce, married William Dishington
Margaret Bruce who married Sir William de Carlyle is thought by Barrow not to be their daughter. It is speculated that Thomas Randolph, 1st Earl of Moray was the son of Marjorie's daughter from her first marriage with Adam. It is put forward as an explanation of why Thomas Randolph was described as a nephew of Robert the Bruce. There is evidence that an "eldest daughter", unknown to history, married into the family of the earls of Mar, giving rise to the now discounted first marriage of Christina to the son of the earl, Gartnait.
Marjorie died before November 1292, at which time her husband transferred Carrick to their eldest son, Robert.

Isabella was the first wife of Robert de Brus, King of Scotland
Born circa 1277 and died 12 Dec 1296. Daughter of Domhnall I or Donald, Earl of MarDonald, Earl of Mar and Helen Llywelyn, the illegitimate daughter of Llywelyn the Great. She was the first wife of Robert the Bruce, mother of Marjorie, and the grandmother of Robert II King of Scotland, founder of the royal House of Stuart. Her father was one of the seven guardians of Scotland who believed Robert should be king, and arranged her marriage to Robert de Brus at age 18, and was the first to sign his properties over to the Bruce. Legend has it they were in love, and she became pregnant soon after the wedding, dying after her daughter was born. Robert did not marry again for six years.
Isabelle is linked to two husbands, initiated from the husbands' memorials, both managed by Findagrave. Please do not ask me to remove the links as I am unable to do so.
