Henry ("7G grandson of David Fleming of Biggar and Cumbernauld") Stewart, Lord Darnley, was born in 1546 in Temple Newsam, Leeds.

Henry ("7G grandson of David Fleming of Biggar and Cumbernauld") Stewart, Lord Darnley, was buried in 1567 in Holyrood Abbey. He died murdered on 10 February 1567 at age ~21 in Kirk o' Field, Edinburgh. He was accused of the murder of Mary's second husband, Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley, a charge of which he was acquitted. His marriage to Mary was controversial and divided the country; when he fled the growing rebellion to Norway, he was arrested and lived the rest of his life imprisoned in Denmark.
On the night of 9–10 February 1567, Mary visited her husband in the early evening and then attended the wedding celebrations of a member of her household, Bastian Pagez.[126] In the early hours of the morning, an explosion devastated Kirk o' Field. Darnley was found dead in the garden, apparently smothered.[127] There were no visible marks of strangulation or violence on the body.[128][129] Bothwell, Moray, Secretary Maitland, the Earl of Morton and Mary herself were among those who came under suspicion^1,2
