Edgar's reign "is often regarded as the highest point of effective power reached by the Old English monarchy...a time of peace for the greater part of England." He is fame is due "to his lavish patronage of the church, and to the encouragement which he gave to the great men, Dunstan, Ethelwold, and Oswald, who in his reign were reviving monastic life in England." {-Encycl.Brit.,'56,8:484.} Edgar reigned from October, 959 to 975. Edgar's reign is the setting of "The King's Henchman," a play by Edna St.Vincent Millay (New York: Harper & Brothers, 1927). | Edgar King of England (I1300)
|
| 2168 | [dunbar_tree.FTW] Cospatrick was Earl of Northumberland (1067-72), first Earl of Dunbar (1072-75), Lord of Carlisle and Allerdale. He m. a sister of Edmund.{-Carr P. Collins, "Royal Ancestors of Magna Charta Barons" (Dallas, 1959, p. 229)} One lineage states that he is son of Maldred, Lord of Carlisle and Allerdale, who was slain in battle in 1045 and whose wife is Edith of England - Maldred is son of Crinan the Thane and Bethoc. Created Earl by William the Conqueror, he was soon deprived of the earldom and fled to Scotland where King Malcolm Canmore gave him Dunbar and adjoining lands. Burke's "Dormant and Extinct Peerages" (London, 1883) reports "The monks of Durham celebrated 15 December, 1069, the death of this Cospatricius, Earl and Monk; and, in 1821, a stone coffin inscribed on its lid, `+ Cospatricius Comes,' was found in the monks' burial ground at Durham." "The Scots Peerage," James Balfour Paul (Edinburg: David Douglas, 1906), pp. 241-3, also gives Maldred (or Malcolm, ID 3257) as his father. Cospatric I visited Rome in 1061; his wife was a sister of Edmund per "Ancestral Roots..." (Balt., 1992), 34-22. Dunbar = Lothian. The LDS Church's unverified Ancestral File gives Cospatrick's wife as Aethelreda, Princess of England.

|
| 2171 | [dunbar_tree.FTW] 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." | Crinan, Grimus (I1145)

|
| 2177 | [dunbar_tree.FTW] David resided in Plantation 3 in Hancock Co., Maine, and served in the War for Independence. {-per George A. Wheeler, "History of Castine...,"Bangor, 1875, p.362.} The first Methodist Church in Penobscot was built on Capt. Dunbar's farm in 1801 with a seating capacity of 1,000! {-Rilla Leach Moore, "Mill Creek: Penobscot, Maine," Castine: 1967, p.3.} Deaths in the Penobscot area also include a Lucy Wardwell, married, age 58 years, died 25 August 1868, dauughter of David Dunbar, born in Scituate, MA, and wife Elizabeth Coan [sic] - did Elizabeth remarry? - is Lucy a daughter of David who d. 1841? David (?1757-1841?) was a solider in the "French and Indian" war and the War for Independence (serving as a Minuteman 17 April 1775!). Mark E. Honey wrote in the Castine Patriot (newspaper), 22 July 1999, p. 6: "Captain David Dunbar...lived in what is now Penobscot, in that community I call the Narrows, between Wardwell's Point and the present Castine town line. He was a master mariner, commanding the schooner 'Hancock' of Blue Hill in 1798, the schooner 'Eight Sisters' of Castine in 1801, and the schooner 'Freedom,' also of Castine. He is also listed as the master of the ship 'Joseph & Phebe' of Castine, probably a vessel belonging to the Perkins family. In March and April of 1812 we find Captain Dunbar sailing to the West Indies and the port of Antigua. He was apparently working for the Castine merchant Doty Little. His crew included Nathan Whight, Jeremiah Green, Mr. Clow, Mr. Perkins, and William Acean. The list of sailors is not complete, nor is the name of the vessel legible, though it may be the 'Defiance,' but what has survived is a one-page document which sheds some light on the expenses of a small vessel in 1812 plying the waters of the West Indies. Incidentally, the initials W.I. were familiar to 19th century coastal folks, because they represented the trade and goods which were a vital link in their maritime commerce. Rum for the ship's use: this particular entry is mentioned on March 9, 11/2 gallons at $1.50, and March 20, 1 gallon at $2. Additional purchases of rum occured on March 20, when a boat was hired at 25 cents per to haul two casks of rum, on March 21 when seven casks of rum and molasses were boted (boated) for 25 cents each, on March 24 when 120 gallons of rum and punch were purchased for $74, and on March 27 when 12 casks of rum and punch were brought to the vessel. This large amount of alcohol was part of the cargo which was to be brought back to Boston or Maine. The rum used on-board ship was part of the daily ration for captain and crfew. It was kept under the watchful eye of the captain whose other difficult job was to keep the crew from sampling the merchandise. Sugar was another important commodity to be purchased for the trip home. ..." NSDAR 611765 records his military service: "Pvt. May 1st 1775, Scituate, Mass. served 8 months under Samuel Stockbridge, Col. Hearth's Regt. of Mass., Jan. 1st 1776 serving 1 year under Capt Joshua Jacobs, Col. Bailey Continental Army, May 1st 1777, 8 months under Capt nathaniel Jarvius, Col. Henry Jackson Continental Army. He was engaged in the battle of Frogs Point and White Plains. - "Soldiers of The American Revolution, Maine," p. 23; Pension #W 22981 National Archives."

| 2179 | [dunbar_tree.FTW] David Williamson, "Kings and Queens of Britain," p. 234, gives Brien Borom's son and father of "Dearbforgail" as Donnchad, King of Munster (1023-64). "Ancestral Roots..." (Balt., 1992) 175-2 agrees, and reports that he was King of Munster in 1023, on pilgrimage to Rome in 1064 and died that year. http://www.magoo.com/hugh/irishkings.html#pedigrees (in 2002) states: "King of Munster. Son of Brian and Gormflaeth ingen Murchada MacFinn. O'Hart says that he assumed the title of Monarch of Ireland 'without the general consent of the major part of the Kingdom.' Went to Rome and made a submission of Ireland to the Pope. Keating says: '. . . the nobles of Ireland consented to the Bishop of Rome's having authority over them, because they were wont to contend with one another for the mastery of Ireland.' Keating places the year of submission to Pope Urbanus II as 1092 and says that, based on this submission, Pope Adrianus granted Ireland to Henry II in 1155. (book II, section XXXIII). Keating says that Donnchadh held the sovereignty of Leath Mogha and the greater part of Ireland for fifty years. Beginning in 1042 the last six kings of Ireland appear to have alternated between provincial candidates, first from Leinster, then Aileach, Munster, Connacht, Tír Conaill, and ending with Ruaidrí O'Connor of Connacht in 1186." | Donnchad, King ofMunster (I1395)
|
| 2180 | [dunbar_tree.FTW] De Guader or de Gael. Ralph was Norman Earl of Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridge as well as Lord of Gael in his native land of Brittany. His inheritance of Gael included more than 40 parishes - he resided in later life there, though he died while on Crusade with the Duke of Normandy. However, Encyclopedia Britannica (1956, 16:488) states that Ralph "forfeited the earldom when he revolted against William in 1075." He is "probably the son of Ralf, earl of Hereford (or earl of the East Angles), and Getha, an English heiress, which Ralf was the son of Gode, sister of Edward the Confessor, by her first husband, Dreu, count of Vexin, Pontoise, Chaumont and Amiens. {-per M.J.Crispiin's "Falaise Roll," 1938, p. 74 - this is the father shown for him as #565}. Ralph was a major field commander for the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings, for which he received the earldoms of Norfolk and Suffolk, and part of Cambridge. | de Guader, Earl of Norfolk Ralph II (I1135)

Encyclopaedia Britannica (1956; 11:668) states that the county was founded by "Rorik, of Norman origin, ...in 862. His successor Gerulf, to whom the German king Arnulf in 889 granted some possessions and rights in the region between the Rhine and Swithardeshaga..., may be considered the first count of Holland, notwithstanding the doubt that may be felt about his being the father of Dirk I, whom tradition long held to be the first count." | Dirk, Count of Holland (First) I (I1623)
