Notes |
- EARLDOM OF STRATHEARN [SCT] (I) (a)
MALISE, probably Mormaer of Strathearn, witnessed, circa 1120, King Alexander's foundation-charter of Scone as Mallus comes; and as Malise Comes he also witnessed, circa 1128, King David's charter to Dunfermline Abbey. He may therefore be regarded as EARL OF STRATHEARN [SCT]. He was present at the dedication of the church of Glasgow, 11 July 1136; and fought under King David at the battle of the Standard, 22 August 1138. He was living on 14 June 1141. The name of his wife is not recorded. [Complete Peerage XII/1:380, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
(a) In the preparation of this article extensive use has been made of The Scots Peerage. Strathearn, with Menteith, in the southern part of Perthshire, formed the ancient Pictish kingdom of Fortrenn, which later became a Province and, as Strathearn and Menteith, a Mormaership. Before 1163 the two districts became divided and each formed one of the seven original Earldoms of Scotland.
