House of Bruce

The House of Bruce was a Scottish royal family in the 14th century. Two members of the house were kings of Scotland:

• Robert I of Scotland (Robert the Bruce) who ruled from 1306 to 1329, and claimed the throne as great-great-great-great-grandson of David I of Scotland of the House of Dunkeld, and came to the throne during the Wars of Scottish Independence.
• David II of Scotland, son of Robert, who ruled from 1329 to 1371 at times in contest with Edward Balliol. He died without issue and the throne passed to his nephew Robert II of Scotland of the House of Stuart.
