Alexander Stewart, Duke of Ross (30 April 1514, Stirling Castle–18 December 1515, Stirling Castle) was the fourth and last son of King James IV of Scotland and his queen Margaret Tudor.
He was born posthumously, after his father was killed at the Battle of Flodden, during the reign of his infant brother King James V of Scotland.
He died in infancy, but during his short life he was heir presumptive to the throne of the Kingdom of Scotland.

When I proposed the merge of Stewart-2311 and Stewart-10553 there were many similarities. I am wondering why Arbuthnot-53 completely changed the vitals for of Stewart-2311?
Once James now Alexander.
