James Livingston, 1st Lord of Callendar, Chamberlain (d before 07.11.1467) m. Marian (d before 20.10.1478)

=========================

     James was Captain of Stirling Castle prior to 1435, and Keeper of
the King in 1444. Prior to June 29, 1444, he was promoted to the office of Great Chamberlain of Scotland. He was arrested along with his father and brother a few weeks after the marriage of James II. Attainder of his estates was proclaimed on January 19, 1450. His lands of Culter were granted to the earl of Douglas, Calyn and Callender to the earl of Crawford and Lenturk to the King's squire, John Schereinwood.

James soon made his peace with James II, and by Martinmas, 1451, he was once again in a position of trust as Keeper of Urquhart and Inveness Castle. In 1453, he was one of the Commissioners sent to England to negotiate for peace. James was reinstated as Great Chamberlain prior to July, 1454; this office was combined with that of Master of the Household.

Prior to July 7, 1455, he was created a peer under the title of Lord Livingston of Calendar. His estates had been restored to him. On April 30, 1458, they were erected into a free barony. In 1464, he received a charter of Baldoran in Stirling.

During the minority of James III, Livingston was employed as a commissioner to negotiate a treaty with England. The negotiated treaty was signed December 12, 1465 at Newcastle-on-Tyne. On July 9, 1466, James joined Lord Boyd in a conspiracy to kidnap the King in a manner not unlike that which he and his father gained control of James II in 1439, and apparently with equal success. In 1466, James was sent to England to negotiate for the marriage of the King. He witnessed a number of Boyd charters dated April 26, 1467, and died before November 7, 1467, when his son was served as his heir.
