ATHOLL, EARLS AND DUKES OF

This article appears in Volume V02, Page 849 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ARN-AUD
ATHOLL, EARLS AND DUKES OF . The
Stewart
  line of the Scottish earls of Atholl, which ended with the 5th
Stewart
 
earl
  in 1595, the earldom reverting to the crown, had originated with Sir John Stewart of Balveny (d. 1512), who was created
earl
  of Atholl about 1457 (new charter 1481). The 5th earl's daughter, Dorothea, married William Murray, earl of Tullibardine (cr. 16o6), who in 1626 resigned his earldom in favour of Sir
Patrick
  Murray, on
condition
  of the revival of the earldom of Atholl in his wife and her descendants. The earldom thus passed to the Murray line, and John Murray, their only son (d. 1642), was accordingly acknowledged as earl of Atholl (the 1st of the Murrays) in 1629.
