Robert Stewart, Lord of Aubigny

Robert Stewart, Lord of Aubigny

Robert Stewart (or Robert Stuart) (1470 – 1544), Lord of Aubigny, Count of Beaumont-le-Roger, was a French soldier belonging to the family of Stewart of Darnley.

Robert was a grandson of Alan Stewart (died 1439) and inherited the Lordship of Aubigny through his marriage to his cousin Anne Stewart, daughter of Bernard Stewart, Lord of Aubigny (died 1508). Robert began his military career in 1493 when he joined the "Garde Écossaise" of King Charles VIII of France. He served with Bernard in Italy in Charles VIII's Italian War and later in that of Louis XII under Trémoille.

He was made Marshal of France in 1514, reconfirmed by Francis I the following year. He fought at the Battle of Marignano in 1515 and at Pavia in 1525.
