Alexander Lindsay, 4th Earl of Crawford
Alexander Lindsay, 4th Earl of Crawford (1423–1453) was a late mediaeval Scottish nobleman, and a magnate of the north-east of that country.
==Life==
Alexander Lindsay was the son of David Lindsay, 3rd Earl of Crawford and Marjory Ogilvie, the daughter of Sir Alexander Ogilvie of Auchterhouse.
Known as the Tiger Earl or Earl Beardie, Crawford was one of the most powerful of the Scottish nobles. For some time he was in arms against King James II as part of the Douglas rebellion. In February 1452, William Douglas, 8th Earl of Douglas was personally killed at Stirling Castle by James II for refusing to dissolve his league with Alexander. The Tiger Earl was defeated at the Battle of Brechin on 18 May, and he submitted to James II in 1452.
Legend has it that he is the infamous "Earl Beardie" featured in one of the myths of Glamis Castle.
