Robert Stewart, 5th Lord of Aubigny

Robert was the fourth son of John Stewart, 1st Earl of Lennox and Margaret Montgomerie.

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.

During the skirmishing leading to the Battle of Marignano in 1515 his soldiers under Jacques de la Palice surprised and captured the Papal commander Prospero Colonna in a daring cavalry raid behind enemy lines.

Robert had two silk and leather purses made in the Scottish fashion, a Spanish guitar, and Turkish carpets.
