The family fell into dispute with the Royal family after the rejec tion of
his daughter Elizabeth by David Stewart, eldest son of King Robert II I,
in favour of a daughter of the Earl of Douglas. This focussed the rivalry
between the Dunbars and the powerful Douglases. George supported the
Englis h against the Scots at the battle of Homildon Hill (14.09.1402) and
also supp orted Henry IV of England at the battle of Shrewsbury. His son
played a low p rofile and appeared to be on good terms with King James I
but the King used t he excuse of the treason to forfeit the earldoms.
