David Lindsay - Duke of Montrose

This David Lindsay (1440-1495) was the 5th Earl of Crawford (acceded 1453) and created the Duke of Montrose 18 May 1488 by Scottish King James III for his dedicated loyalty. It was the first instance of the rank of Duke having been conferred upon a Scottish subject, not of the royal family.

The balance of this narrative is being researched and will be added soon.
