Who Was the Young Pretender of Scotland?
Charles Edward Stuart was born on 31 December 1720 was known as Bonnie Prince Charlie. He was the exiled Jacobite claimant to the thrones of England, Scotland and Ireland. He was the grandson of James II and James VII, after his father’s death Charles was recognised as Charles III by his supporters, his opponents referred to him as The Young Pretender. In December 1743, Charles’ father named him Prince Regent which gave him full authority to seek to regain all thrones. He kitted out two ships but his hopes of raising a French fleet were dashed and he landed in Scotland having to raise an army. He had hoped for wide support from the Highland clans, it was slow in materialising but he eventually raised a large enough force to march and take Edinburgh, he then defeated a government army at the Battle of Prestonpans. Subsequently he marched South, taking Carlisle and making his way as far as Derbyshire, however the English Jacobite support that he was expecting never occurred and he returned to Scotland. George II’s son, the Duke of Cumberland marched north and the two met at the Battle of Culloden on 16 April 1746 with the Duke massacring Charles’ forces. Bonnie Prince Charlie fled the country, escaping to France. He informed his Jacobite supporters that he would never regain the throne as a Catholic, accordingly he slipped back into England in 1750 and conformed to the Protestant faith. He died in Rome on 31 January 1788 and is buried in a crypt in St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican.
