Given that this is a Scottish title, it would seem to me that Duke of Rothesay should be used to identify the holder, rather than Prince of Wales. After all, when the current Prince of Wales visits Scotland with his wife, they are referred to as the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay, rather than The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall. So I think the "holders" list should be revised to replace "Prince of Wales" with "Duke of Rothesay" Simhedges (talk) 15:48, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Part of the problem is that between 1603 and the mid 19th century "Duke of Rothesay" seems to have been overlooked in successive heirs' styles - see that page for more. (Perhaps because hardly any heir apparents seem to have set foot in Scotland in the period.) It would be anachronistic to apply the title to them if they never used it.

Charles James Stewart, Duke of Cornwall and Rothesay
Successor of Charles I of England to the title of High Steward of Scotland is called in this article "Charles James Stewart, Duke of Cornwall and Rothesay", and the link is red, meaning there is no article of him, however Charles I of England had a son who reigned Britain as Charles II of England who is called in this article "Charles, Prince of Wales", who was this Charles James Stewart who held the title after Charles I before Charles II was born?

Does anyone know when the Stewards started to become known as "Great Steward" or "High Steward"? G. W. S. Barrow notes that Walter son of Alan (d. 1177) became dapifer to David I; Alan son of Walter (d. 1204) was dapifer to William the Lion; Walter son of Alan (d. 1241) was senescallus. Barrow notes that during the time of Walter's son, Alexander of Dundonald (d. 1282), the the office-bearers became known as senescallus Scotie ("stewart of Scotland") rather than dapifer regis Scotie ("steward of the king of Scotland"). I'm not sure about the later Stewards. Does anyone know?--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 06:26, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Someone who knows their history better than I can probably parse this run-on sentence into multiple sentences that I might be able to understand:
A junior branch of the Stewart family descended from the younger son of Alexander Stewart, 4th High Steward of Scotland (d.1283), namely "Stewart of Darnley", paternal ancestors of King James I & VI, lived for several generations in France, when the name became spelt in the French manner "Stuart" and "Dernelé".[2]
