Mary married King James II Of Scotland (1430 - 1460, reigned 1437 - 1460) at Holyrood Abbey in Edinburgh ( 3 July 1449 ) and went on to bear him eight children. She acted as Regent for a time during the minority of their son James III Of Scotland (1451/52 - 1488), her husband having died as the result of an accident at the age of only 30. Mary, a devout Christian, founded (c.1460) in memory of her husband Trinity College Church (on Edinburgh's Royal Mile ), of which only the Apse remains as the Brass Rubbing Centre . She was buried in Trinity College Church, although her coffin was moved to Holyrood Abbey in 1848 . |
