Robert I of Scotland |
 | | Robert Bruce was born at Turnberry Castle, Ayrshire, in 1274. |
| | He was the son of Robert Bruce, Lord of Annandale, and Margaret, daughter of Neil, Earl of Carrick. |
| | Eight years of exhausting but deliberate refusal to meet the English on even ground, during the Wars of Scottish Independence, proved Bruce to be considered by many to be one of the great guerrilla leaders of any age, which represented a transformation for one raised as a feudal knight. |
