  • Stewart of Darnley was a notable Scots family, a branch of the House of Stewart, who provided the English Stuart monarchs with their male-line Stuart descent, after the reunion of their branch with the royal Scottish branch, which led to the ultimate union of the two main kingdoms of Great Britain: England and Scotland. In 1565 the House of Stewart of Darnley was re-united with the Royal House of Stewart when Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley, himself a descendant of King Henry VII of England, with a claim to the English throne, married Mary, Queen of Scots. This marriage united the two main claimants to the English throne through their descent from Margaret Tudor, daughter of Henry VII of England. The son of this union James VI of Scots to succeeded to the throne of England as James I. The later Kings of the House of Stuart such as James I and the Old Pretender were more properly members of the Stewart of Darnley branch, who all drew upon their feudal heritage in Lennox (district).

I Darnley discendono da John Stewart, secondo figlio di Alexander Stewart, quarto High Steward of Scotland, e morto nel 1298 nella battaglia di Falkirk.
