The four Marys Brooch Got it’s Name beacause:
The Queen of Scotland at the age of just 6 days, had a very chaotic and endangered life. When she travelled to France in 1548, she was escorted by her four ladies in waiting. These four ladies, who would accompany the young Queen to France were to become the Queen’s closest companions and friends, as well as her ladies-in-waiting. They are known to history as The Four Marys, Mary Seton, Mary Fleming, Mary Beaton, and Mary Livingston.
They all had Scottish fathers and two of them had French mothers and therefore could be relied upon to be loyal not only to their Scottish Queen but also to the French Queen Mother, it was also the Queen Mother’s intentions for her daughter to marry the Francis, Dauphin of France, to whom Mary was betrothed. Mary Fleming was also a relative of Mary Queen of Scots, hence the four marys brooch.
