Best Answer

Stuart Monarchs The first monarch to use the name "Stuart" was Mary, Queen of Scots who changed the spelling from "Stewart" when she was Queen Consort of France.

The first Stewart monarch was Robert II, King of Scots from 1371 to 1390. King James VI of Scotland, son of Mary, Queen of Scots, and a descendant of Robert II, became the first Stewart monarch of England (as James I) on the death of Queen Elizabeth I in 1603. The name "Stewart" derives from the ancient Scottish title "High Steward of Scotland" which was held by an ancestor of Robert II. Nowadays, the title "High Steward of Scotland" is attached to the title "Duke of Rothesay" and so is held by His Royal Highness, The Prince Charles.

Why is John Mcdouall Stuart famous?

John McDouall Stuart was a Scottish-born explorer who arrived in South Australia in 1839. His first experience in exploration was when he was employed as a draughtsman by Captain Charles Sturt on an expedition into the desert interior. After this, Stuart led a number of expeditions west of Lake Eyre. Stuart is most famous for being the first recorded explorer to successfully cross Australia from south to north, and back again, returning alive. Stuart led a total of five expeditions in the attempt to be the first to cross the continent from south to north. He finally succeeded on his fifth attempt, reaching the northern waters at Chambers Bay in July 1862. Because of Stuart's success, South Australia (represented by Stuart) was given control of the area of Australia now known as the Northern Territory. Australia's famous Overland Telegraph Line was built from Adelaide to Darwin, roughly following the path Stuart took.
