  • Agnes Keith, Countess of Moray (c. 1540 – 16 July 1588) was a Scottish noblewoman. She was the wife of James Stewart, 1st Earl of Moray, regent of Scotland and the illegitimate half-brother of Mary, Queen of Scots, making her a sister-in-law of the Scottish queen. As the wife of the regent, Agnes was the most powerful woman in Scotland from 1567 until her husband's assassination in 1570. She was married secondly to Sir Colin Campbell, heir presumptive to the earldom of Argyll. When he succeeded his brother as the 6th earl in 1573, Agnes was henceforth styled Countess of Argyll. During her second marriage, Agnes became embroiled in a litigation over Queen Mary's jewels which had earlier fallen into her keeping. It was her refusal to hand the jewels over to the Scottish Government that sparked a feud between the Earl of Argyll and the Regent Morton. (en)

  • Agnes Keith, född 1540, död 1588, var en skotsk grevinna. Hon gifte sig 1561 med James Stewart, 1:e earl av Moray, som var Skottlands regent 1567-70, och 1572 med Colin Campbell, 6:e earl av Argyll. Som regentens maka hade hon högsta rang av Skottlands kvinnor under sin makes ämbetstid. Under sitt andra äktenskap var hon vida känd som en deltagare i politiken och agerade politisk rådgivare åt sin make, vilket gjorde att hon år 1573 blev bannlyst av den skotska kyrkan för att inte underkasta sig sin make. Genom sin vägran att lämna ut Maria Stuarts juveler, vilket ledde till en lång rättsstrid innan hon tvingades ge efter (1574-75), underblåste hon den konflikt mellan sin make och regenten James Douglas, 4:e earl av Morton, som 1578 ledde till Mortons fall.
