He was given the name of Archibald James Edward Stewart at birth.1 He was educated in 1759 at Rugby School, Rugby, Warwickshire, EnglandG.2 He was educated at Winchester College, Winchester, Hampshire, EnglandG.1 On 9 September 1761 his name was legally changed to Archibald James Edward Douglas only being served heir of entail to his uncle, the 3rd Marquess of Douglas.1 In July 1767 the Court of Session decided he was not the rightful heir to the Douglas estates.1 On 27 February 1769 the House of Lords reversed this decision, deciding that he was the rightful heir to the Douglas estates (the 'Douglas Case'). The Duke of Hamilton claimed he was the heir on the grounds that Archibald was not the son of his mother (twin sons born to a woman 51 years old does seem unlikely.)1 He held the office of Member of Parliament (M.P.) (Tory) for Forfarshire between 1782 and 1790.1 He was created 1st Baron Douglas of Douglas, co.
