[WFT Vol 12 Ped 1152]
Son of Devorguilla Balliol, John m. Isabella, dau. of the Earl of Surrey (Warenne). Three elder brothers predeceased him, leaving him vast English and Scottish estates. His claim to the throne (1291) was contested by a dozen rivals including Robert Bruce of Annandale. Dreading civil war, the Guardians of Scotland invited Edward I of England to conduct an inquiry; he began by demanding allegiance and custody of important castles.
John's claim was the strongest, Enthroned at Scone on St. Andrew's Day 1292, he soon found Edward's interventions intolerable. When Edward demanded Scots troops for war in France, the Community of the Realm induced John to abrogate his allegiance, and themselves renewed the auld alliance with France (1295);
Edward invaded Scotland, sacking Berwick and routing the feudal army at Dunbar.
John fled and sued for peace; he made abject surrender at Stracathro, July 1296, and was stripped of the royal insignia (whence his byename "Toom Tabard"--empty surcoat). Imprisoned in the Tower of London, then released into Papal custody, he was finally given his ancestral home, Bailleul in Picardy, where he died, leaving a son Edward Balliol, who renewed the claim to Scotland. [Collins Encyclopaedia of Scotland, p. 57]
After the death of the 'Maid of Norway' two competitors were left for the crown of Scotland: John Baliol, a major English landowner and the 80-year-old Bruce, grandfather of Robert Bruce the king, who had served England as a judge. Edward I was appealed to and agreed to act as arbiter, provided both competitors
acknowledged him as superior lord of Scotland. The Scots grudgingly accepted this as the alternative to civil war, and they had no complaints about Edward's choice of Baliol, who undoubtedly had the better claim. But Baliol, once chosen, had to swear fealty to Edward I for the realm of Scotland, helf of him as superior lord. [Castles of England, Scotland and Wales, p. 128]

King Robert the Bruce took his lands of Crumshuc in Cunningham and gave them to Sir Reginald de Crawford of Auchinames. [Kilburnie Place <http://home.earthlink.net/~kilbirnie/]
Lady Devorgilla and John Balliol had a son, also John. In 1292, he became King of Scots, but his was to be a short, tragic reign. In July 1296 he was stripped of his regalia by the English king and the costly fur was taken from his surcoat, or tabard. The downfall of 'Toom Tabard' (empty coat) heralded the bloody and prolonged wars with England that bedevilled the country for over 50 years. [Sweetheart Abbey, p. 8]
Edward I was accepted by the Scottish Lords as arbitrator in the disputed succession to the Scottish Crown at Norham Castle. John Balliol swore fealty to him after the award was made. [Medieval Castles, Towers, Peles and Bastles of Northumberland, p. 15]
