Charles Stewart, 3rd Duke of Richmond and 6th Duke of Lennox, was a descendant of John Stewart, a younger brother of Matthew Stewart (the grandfather of King James VI of Scotland & I of England). His third and final wife was Frances Teresa Stewart, who had refused to be Charles II's mistress.

IOTL, he was sent to the Danish court in 1672 where he drowned and died, aged just 33. Assuming that he lives and every goes as IOTL until 1688, if Parliament still wants a Stewart/Stuart on the throne, would Charles have even a small chance of becoming King Charles III?
