Notes for Robert I Bruce

elegido Rey por los Señores de Escocia en 1306 para continuar la lucha de Wallace. Vencedor de los Ingleses en Bannockburn, 1314, con la cual Escocia recobro su independencia.
Battle of Bannockburn - 1314
Bannockburn is located at a distance of 35 miles north of Edinburgh, 2 miles south of Stirling on A872, Scotland. The Stirling Castle again became the center of the Battle of Bannockburn. The long term objective was for the Scots to gain independence from the English. Robert the Bruce was the commander. Sir Henry Sinclair (1275-1329) fought impressively and his leadership was rewarded by granting him more land. Sir Henry also was a signer of the truce, which sought to achieve a permanent peace between King Robert the Bruce and King Edward II. Henry Sinclair was the 8th Baron of Roslin.
