Her son was James VI of Scotland and 1st of England and identified very much with his new role. There seems to be a fashion, particularly in the catholic church, for digging up people and re-interring them elsewhere. Something similar is planned for Cardinal Newman who is buried in the same grave as his lifelong companion, Ambrose St. John. I really think it best that they remain where they are.
