What happened to Mary queen of Scott's decendants?

Answer 1

Her son James took the English throne after the death of his cousin Elizabeth I. He became the 1st monarch to rule both Scotland and England and thus was the 1st in the house of Stuart to rule both. The house of Stuart lasted unitil the death of Queen Anne in 1714 when it went to her 2nd cousin George (he was James I's great-grandson) and then was known as house of Hanover. This caused considerable nastiness with some people (Scotts) who thought the crown should go to Anne's little brother (also called James) however he wouldn't give up being a Catholic (had to be a protestent monarch) it got so nasty uprisings known as the Jacobite uprisings took place, but failed. The royal family today is decended from Mary, Queen of Scotts, ofcourse she has other decendents, some of which are more directly decended. If you Google the house of Stuart you can learn more about them.

Answer 2

Mary, Queen of Scots was beheaded for treason on 8 February 1587 in Fotheringay Castle, after Elizabeth I reluctantly signed her death warrant.

When Elizabeth I died in 1603 without issue, the son of Mary, Queen of Scots, who was James VI of Scotland, succeeded to the throne as James I. He was a cousin of Elizabeth I, descended from Henry VII, the first Tudor monarch, via his grandmother, Margaret Tudor, eldest sister of Henry VIII. Margaret Tudor was grandmother to both of James's parents, Mary and her second husband, Lord Henry Darnley.
