Atholl, John Murray, 1st marquis of

A Dictionary of British History | 2004 | | © A Dictionary of British History 2004, originally published by Oxford University Press 2004. (Hide copyright information) Copyright

Atholl, John Murray, 1st marquis of [S] (1631–1703). Murray's grandfather was earl of Tullibardine but resigned the title in 1626 on promise of the earldom of Atholl, given to his son in 1629. Murray joined Lord Middleton in 1653 in the Highland rising on behalf of Charles I. At the Restoration he was in favour. From 1663 to 1676 he served as justice‐general [S] and in 1670 succeeded a cousin as earl of Tullibardine. From 1672 to 1689 he was keeper of the privy seal and in 1676 was raised to the rank of marquis. In 1679 he fought with Monmouth against the covenanters at Bothwell Bridge, and took an active part against Argyll's invasion of 1685. In 1687 James II gave him the Thistle. His vacillation at the Glorious Revolution earned him widespread mistrust and, in the end, he took refuge in visiting Bath to take the waters.
