Notes - Marjorie was captured by the English in 1306. Edward I of England ordered her father's sister Mary and the Countess of Buchan imprisoned in cages at Roxburgh and Berwick. He ordered that another cage be built for Marjorie at the Tower of London, but because of her youth he relented and sent her to a nunnery in Yorkshire. She was exchanged for English prisoners after Bannockburn.
Died late in pregnancy after falling from her horse and giving premature birth to Robert II, King of Scots.
