Balliol
Balliol was the rival Scottish kingship claimed by Edward Balliol. In 1337 his court sat at Perth, supported by Edward III of England against David II; Balliol had ceded Lothian and paid homage to Edward in 1334.
After David was captured at Neville’s Cross in 1346, Balliol returned and held part of Galloway until 1355. He surrendered his claim to Edward III in 1356 in exchange for an annual pension of two thousand pounds, and died childless in 1364.
