king of See also:Scotland, was a son of John de Baliol (d. 1269) of See also:Barnard See also:Castle, See also:Durham, by his wife Dervorguila, daughter of Alan, See also:earl of See also:Galloway, and became See also:head of the Baliol See also:family (see above) and See also:lord of extensive lands in See also:England, See also:France and Scotland on his See also:elder See also:brother's See also:death in 1278. Little else, however, is known of his See also:early See also:life. He came into prominence when the Scottish See also:throne became vacant in 1290 owing to the death of See also:Margaret, the " maid of See also:Norway," a granddaughter of King See also:Alexander III., and was one of the three candidates for the See also:crown whose pretensions were seriously considered. Claiming through his maternal grandmother, Margaret, the eldest daughter of See also:David, earl of See also:Huntingdon (d. 1219), who was a See also:grandson of King David I., Baliol's See also:principal See also:rival was See also:Robert See also:Bruce, earl of Annandale, and the dispute was the somewhat See also:familiar one of the eldest by descent against the nearest of See also:kin. Meanwhile the See also:English king, See also:Edward I., was closely watching the trend of affairs in Scotland and was invited to See also:settle this dispute. It is doubtful what rights, if any, the English See also:kings had over Scotland, but when Edward met the Scottish nobles at Norham in May 1291, he demanded a formal recognition of his position as overlord of Scotland. After some delay this was tacitly admitted by the nobles, and acknowledged by Baliol and the other competitors, who all agreed to abide by his decision. A See also:court of eighty Scotsmen and twenty-four Englishmen was then appointed to try the question. Traversing the statements made in favour of Bruce, Baliol claimed by the principles of feudal See also:law for an indivisible See also:inheritance, and on the See also:advice of the court Edward decided in his favour. Having sworn fealty to the English king, Baliol was crowned king of Scotland at See also:Scone on the 3oth of See also:November 1292; in his new capacity he did See also:homage to Edward at See also:Newcastle, and in See also:January 1293 released the English king from all promises and obligations made while the See also:kingdom of Scotland was in his hands. These amicable relations were soon disturbed. A Scottish See also:vassal carried his See also:case to Edward as Baliol's overlord, and Baliol himself was soon summoned to the English court to See also:answer a suit brought against him. After a See also:short struggle he admitted Edward's right, and in May 1294 attended a See also:parliament in See also:London. He soon quarrelled with his overlord, the exact point at issue being doubtful, and returned

to Scotland. Consequent on the dispute which had broken out between England and France, a See also:council of twelve was appointed to assist him, and it was decided to defy Edward. Englishmen were dismissed from the Scottish court, their fiefs were confiscated, and an See also:alliance was concluded with See also:- PHILIP
