Best Answer

She was born in Scotland, but sent to France at the age of 5 years old for her safety. She married the dauphin in 1558(heir to the French throne) when she was 15 or 16 and became the Queen of France a year later. But her husband died in 1560. She came back to Scotland in 1561 to start her rule poper (she had been Queen since just a baby and the country had been ruled by regents until she was old enough.) She married again in 1565 - her cousin Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley, he was the father of her son James - the future James VI and I. Lord Darnley was killed in 1567, Mary married the earl of Bothwell soon after. This was controversial as Bothwell was suspected of murdering Darnley. There was an uprising against this and Mary was imprisoned in Loch Leven Castle and forced to abdicate in favour of her baby son. She escaped to England hoping her second-cousin Queen Elizabeth would help restore her to her throne. Instead she ended up in English custody and began a period of almost twenty years of behind held in various manors/castles - among them was Carslise Castle, Sheffield Castle and Fotheringhay - where she was tried and executed.
