"The Scots Peerage," ed. by Sir James Balfour Paul, 4:135: "The first Lord
or Prince of Galloway on record is Fergus, styled `of Galloway', who
appears as a witness to a charter by King David I, granting land to the
Church of Glasgow on 7 July 1136 when that church was dedicated.... Little
is known of his personal history, but like King David I...he gave liberally
to the church, and was the founder of several abbeys in his own district.
...Towards the close of his life, and after King David's death, Fergus
appears to have been drawn by the claims of relationship to take part in
the insurrection of Donald MacBeth, or at least to afford him shelter in his
territories. There Donald was pursued by King Malcolm IV, who succeeded in
1160 in reducing the rebellious district to submission, and Fergus, perhaps
because of advancing age, took the cowl, and became a monk in the then new
Abbey of Holyrood, where he died in 1161. He is said to have married
Elizabeth, the youngest natural daughter of Henry I of England, but the
authorities quoted by Chalmers, who makes the statement, do not bear out
his assertion. However, Hovendon (who knew the Galloway chiefs personally)
and Benedict Abbas both refer to Uchtred, eldest son of Fergus, as cousin
of Henry II. This epithet is NOT applied to Gilbert, and he may be a son
by a second wife."

Maldred is the younger son; his illegitimate male line still exists in the
family of Dunbar. He was Lord of Carlisle and Allendale. He and Ealdgith
are given as parents of Gospatrick by "The Prescott Family of America,"
Doris Cline Ward (2nd Ed., 1977). See "The Scots Peerage," James Balfour
Paul (Edinburg: David Douglas, 1906), pp. 240-41. He was Regent of
Strathclyde in 1034.

Maldred married Northumberland, Edith of about 1036. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Crinan or Grimus is also known as Albanach. He was Lay Abbot of Dunkeld and Governor of the Hebrides Islands of Scotland. His parents are not known, but he appears to be of Viking ancestry. Sir Anthony R. Wagner, Garter King of Arms ("English
Ancestry," Oxford Un. Press, 1961, p.16) states: "Though there is no genealogy of Crinan's ancestors, his hereditary abbacy of Dunkeld makes it likely that he was of the blood of St. Columba (d. 597), the apostle of Scotland, who was a great-grandson
of the Irish high king Niall of the Nine Hostages." "The Plantagenet Ancestry," W. H. Turton (Balt.: Gen. Pub. Co., 1968) gives Crinan's parents as Duncan and ____ "of the Isles." Le Bateman (LeBateman@NetZero.Net) offered via email 7/2001: "Maldred
mac Crinan or Grimus had son named Maldred also. The ancestry for Uhtred is in Henry B. Woolf's "Old Germanic Principles of Name Giving," and the Neville ancestry is in Volume IX of The Complete Peerage by George E. Cokayne. Maldred would be listed in
both. Also check Frederick Lewis Weis's Ancestral Roots 7th Ed. 1997. p. 247."

Godiva or "Godgifu" was born about 1010, a sister of Thorold of Buckingham
(Sheriff of Lincs.); she is the "Lady Godiva" of legend, and apparently is
of an old, noble family. One correspondent claims her father was Earl of
Lincolnshire.
