The only problem is that only the South Branch (sort of) flows north. The main course, if anything, heads south. I grew up in Eugene, OR, at the headwaters of the Willamette, which really does flow north. But I don't recall any of my high school chums telling me about the Willamette and the Nile.
How did Saint Margaret of Scotland die? Margaret died on November 16, 1093, at Edinburgh Castle, Scotland, four days after her husband and son died in defense of the castle. Edit
  I think you are confusing Mary I, Queen of Scots with Mary I, Queen of England (Bloody Mary).   Mary Queen of Scots, although brought up a Catholic, attempted to reac â¦ h an understanding with the Scottish Protestants.ary I (also known as Bloody Mary) actually killed 284.   She was known as Bloody Mary because of how many protestants she killed.
