 Guise. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
Claude’s daughter, Mary of Guise, married King James V of Scotland and was the mother of Mary Queen of Scots (Mary Stuart).
Claude’s son François de Lorraine, 2d duc de Guise, 1519–63, became conspicuous, at the accession (1547) of Henry II, as the rival for power of Anne, duc de Montmorency.
As a result, in 1561 the duke joined with Montmorency and Marshal Saint-André in the so-called triumvirate, which, at the head of the Catholic party, opposed both the Huguenots and the tolerant policy of the regent.

 James V Of Scotland - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
JAMES V. (1512-1542), king of Scotland, son of James IV., was born at Linlithgow on the 10th of April 1512, and became king when his father was killed at Flodden in 1513.
Henceforward the minority of James was disturbed by constant quarrels between a faction, generally favourable to England, under Angus, and the partisans of France under Albany; while the queen-mother and the nobles struggled to gain and to regain possession of the king's person.
Madeleine died soon after her arrival in Scotland, and in 1538 James made a much more important marriage, being united to Mary (1515-1560), daughter of Claude, duke of Guise, and widow of Louis of Orleans, duke of Longueville.

'''Marie de Guise''' (in English, Mary of Guise) (November 22,1515 - June,1560) was the queen consort of James V of Scotland and the mother of Mary, Queen of Scots.
It was Marie de Guise who effectively ruled Scotland as Regent for Queen Mary, whom Marie sent to France when Mary was 5 years old, to be raised with her husband-to-be, the son of the French king Henry II.
There is no evidence for this and Mary of Guise's death was one of the few royal deaths in the 16th century which wasn't attributed by her paranoid contemporaries to poison.

 James V
James V, King of Scotland, son of James IV, was born at Linlithgow on the 10th of April 1512, and became king when his father was killed at Flodden in 1513.
Henceforward the minority of James was disturbed by constant quarrels between a faction, generally favorable to England, under Angus, and the partisans of France under Albany; while the queen-mother and the nobles struggled to gain and to regain possession of the king's person.
At this time, as on previous occasions, Henry VIII wished James to marry his daughter Mary, while other ladies had been suggested by the emperor Charles V; but the Scottish king, preferring a French bride, visited France, and in January 1537 was married at Paris to Madeleine, daughter of King Francis I.

 Courtly Lives ... Anne of Cleves
However, the Dukes of Cleves (her father and her brother) suggested Anne and Amelia were fearful of Henry's licentious court.
One might guess that Anne was sheltered because of the reputation of her grandfather who was called "the babymaker," because of his many mistresses and illegitimate children.
The Duke of Cleves threw into the negotiations that Anne was betrothed to the Duke of Lorraine's son, the Marquess of Pont-a-Mousson and that he must be careful not to break the precontract and anger that family.
