David Stewart, Earl of Strathearn and a …

Years: 1386 - 1386

David Stewart, Earl of Strathearn and a younger son of Robert II, had become involved in a major dispute with his older half-brother, Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, who by 1385 had occupied his castle at Urquhart.

It is uncertain, but it is highly likely that Strathearn died in March 1386, and no later than 1389.

His wife appears to have been a daughter of Sir Alexander Lindsay of Glenesk, and sister of David Lindsay, 1st Earl of Crawford.

They have a daughter, Euphemia, who succeeds to the earldom.

His widow will marry secondly Sir William Graham of Montrose, by whom she will become the mother of his eldest son and heir Alexander Graham, esq., of Kincardine, father of the first Lord Graham.
