Alas for you, the Jacobean Stuart line died out in the 18th century (the last potential claimant was a Cardinal, which means that any sprog of his is a bastard and so can't inherit). There are some loons that claim to be members of the displaced elder line of Stewards (sic) and get mixed up with Templar tomfoolery.
Me, I believe that there hasn't been a legitimate ruler ever since the Welsh seized the throne.
