The daughter of Isobel of Mar and Robert I, Marjory Bruce was captured soon after her father seized the throne of Scotland. Edward I ordered that she be confined to a cage in the Tower of London but later allowed her to move as a captive to the Gilbertine nunnery of Watton in Yorkshire. She was released in 1314 following the battle at Bannockburn and married Walter Stewart the same year.
