Arabella Stuart
Lady Arbella Stuart (1575 - 1615) was an English noblewoman who was for some time considered a possible successor to Queen Elizabeth I of England. She was the only child of The 1st Earl of Lennox (of the third creation), by his marriage to Elizabeth Cavendish. She was a grandchild of The 4th Earl of Lennox (of the second creation) and Lady Margaret Douglas, who was in turn the daughter of the 6th Earl of Angus, and of Queen Margaret Tudor, the widow of James IV of Scotland. Arbella was therefore a great-great-granddaughter of Henry VII of England and in line to the English throne, although she did not herself aspire to it.
In her final days as a prisoner in the Tower of London, Arbella Beauchamp (her married name), refusing to eat, fell ill, and died on 25 September 1615.
