Biography

Notables Project
Isabella (Stewart) of Scotland is Notable.

Isabella, born in 1426, was the second daughter of James I of Scotland and his queen-consort, Joan Beaufort.[1] On 30 Oct 1442 at the Château d'Auray (Morbihan) she married Francois I, duke of Brittany.[2][3] There were two children from this marriage:

Isabella inherited her father's love of poetry, and was the author of two French verses written on the death of her sister, Margaret, and published in Francisque-Michel's Les Écossais en France (i.193).[4]

Isabella remained in France after her husband's death in 1450, outliving him by almost 48 years. She died at the end of 1498 or the beginning of 1499 and was buried in the Cathedral of Saint-Pierre at Vannes, France.[1]
