Narrative

Between 1370 and 1390 George was referred to in contemporary sources by Lord of Annandale and the Isle of Man. He held the office of Warden of the Marches in 1372. He fought in the Battle of Otterburn in 1388, where he took command of the Scots after the death of ‘Black Douglas.' In 1400 he renounced his allegiance to King Robert III when the King's eldest son and heir the Duke of Rothesay broke off his engagement to the 9th Earl's daughter, Elizabeth. He fought in the Battle of Homildon Hill in 1402, with the English. He fought in the Battle of Shrewsbury in 1403, with the English against Harry Hotspur, then in rebellion. In 1406 after King Robert III's death, he negotiated with the Regent a renewal of allegiance to the Scottish Crown, though at the price of the Lordship of Annandale among other possessions.
