Edit ProfileCareer
He was styled in Scotland as Earl of Carnwath between 25 February 1645 and 21 June 1654, after the title was declared to have descended by an Acting of the Scottish Parliament, due to his father having been accused by the Convention of the Scottish Estate of betraying them to the King. He fought in the Battle of Worcester on the Royalist side, and was taken prisoner, being held for many years.
