Family with parents
father	Links Birth: 1421 26 — Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Scotland Marriage: 1449 — Calderwood, Lanarkshire, Scotland Accomplishment: Lord Boyd obtained the cession of the Orkney Islands to Scotland, 8 September 1468, from Christian I, King of Norway, for whose daughter Margaret, he negotiated a marriage with James III. While absent for that purpose he and his son Thomas (the Earl of Arran) and his brother (and coadjutor) Sir Alexander Boyd, were attainted for high treason, whereby his peerage became forfeited. He was living Easter 1480/1, and died before October 1482, it is said, at Alnwick in Northumberland where he had fled in 1469.[1]\|\|James III's biographer sums Boyd up as an unscrupulous political gambler and an inveterate optimist. To forcibly assume guardianship of an underage King was, indeed, a familiar path to power in medieval Scotland, but it was also a dangerous path. Boyd underestimated the dangers, overestimated his support, and made the fatal mistake of marrying his son to the King's sister, an insult the King would not forgive.[5] Updated at: 31 JUL 2018 14:55:29 GMT -0600 Updated at: 11 APR 2018 08:55:32 GMT -0600 Death: October 14, 1482 — Alnwick, Northumberland, England Record ID number: MH:I501677 Record ID number: MH:F500560 Unique identifier: 5ACE13D3BE8B66E647A64B6013BE6CA9 Links Ancestors Compact tree Descendants Family book Fan chart Hourglass chart Interactive tree Pedigree Pedigree map Relationships Family with spouse Lady Mariota Janet Maxwell Sir Thomas Boyd Sir Alexander Boyd Elizabeth Boyd Archibald Boyd John Boyd Annabella (Boyd) Gordon Adam Boyd Margaret Maxwell Robert Boyd IV 1421–1482 Birth: 1421 26 — Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Scotland Death: October 14, 1482 — Alnwick, Northumberland, England
