Is it Robert the Bruce?

No, Ocatvious has already asked this question.

Shall I count this one now as a valid question?

So far, we know:

1. Real person
2. Man
3. Dead
4. No alive at any point after 1 Jan 1950
5. Born in England, Scotland, or Wales
6. Not alive at any point after 1 Jan 1850
7. Not royal

One guess per person does not count against the total, but additional guesses by the same person do. After all 20 questions are up, three total guesses are allowed. 4. Please choose people...

"Was he alive at any point 1800 onwards?"

My bad...
