Wow, related to George Wishart, how about that? That’s amazing - probably one of the two most important martyrs of the Scottish Reformation.

Cardinal Beaton indeed had him killed, which led directly to Beaton’s grisly end only a couple of months later. But I don’t think you can blame Mary - she was only 3 at the time.

Hung from a tree in his nightgown, and stabbed with swords several timed. My great-grandmother’s maiden name was Wishart
