James Francis Edward Stuart was a claimant to the British throne as James III of England and VIII of Scotland. He was the son of King James II and VII. Following the Glorious Revolution in 1688, which led to his father's exile, he became the focal point of Jacobite support. James led the Jacobite risings in an attempt to regain the throne, notably in 1715, but his efforts were unsuccessful. After the failure of these uprisings, he lived much of his life in exile in France and Italy. He was granted the title 'James III' and became a symbolic leader for Jacobite loyalists throughout the 18th century, even as the movement declined over time.
