     Catherine died on 10 February 1479 in Lobith, the Netherlands, aged 61. In Schilfgaarde's book, same page 105, her mother, Catharina van Kleef, died at Lobith 20 February 1476, and was buried in the Karthusian Convent/monastery "op ten Grave" near Wesel. The appropriate footnote tells that her remains, in 1590, were moved to the Dominican church in Wesel.

     Christian, I, King of Denmark was born in Denmark.

     Coel Hen or Godebog was born in England.
Coel Hen or Godebog married Ystradwel ferch Gadeon, daughter of Gadeon ap Cynan (?).

      J Balfour Paul states: Dunbar: 'the castle on the hill,' in East Lothian, gave name to this family, who are of Celtic origin, their earliest known ancestor being 'Crinan the Thane,' who flourished between 975 and 1045. His grandson was 'Gospatrick the Earl,' who was Earl of Northumberland from 1067 to 1072, in which year he had a grant of Dunbar with the adjacent lands in Lothian from King Malcolm Ceannmor. When surnames came into use Earl Gospatrick's descendants took their name from Dunbar, the lands and earldom of which they held for nearly four hundred years, from 1072 until the forfeiture on 11 January 1434-35 of George of Dunbar, eleventh Earl of Dunbar and fourth Earl of March. The Earls of Dunbar held great territories both in Scotland and in England, and they had the guardianship of the East March, a charge which either seems to have been sufficient to occupy them, or they were not ambitious, as although they were perhaps the most powerful of the Scottish nobility they do not appear to have ever held any of the high offices about the King. Though Gospatrick was the first Earl of Dunbar, it is necessary before treating him to give a short statement of his ancestry and immediate parentage. His grandfather, Crinan, known as 'Crinan the Thane,' of the kin of St Columba, was hereditary lay-abbot of Dunkeld and Seneschal of the Isles. He also held, with other lands, the territory called the 'Abthania, de Dul,' part of which is now the parish of Dull in Atholl'. Crinan the Thane, was born circa 975 in Scotland.
Crinan the Thane, married Beatrice or Bethoc,, daughter of Malcolm, II, King of Scots, circa 1000.
     Crinan died in 1045. In attempting to avenge the death of his elder son King Duncan I Crinan was slain in battle 'with nine times twenty heroes'.
I presume the lineage of the Earls of Dunbar is established by the Durham muniments (barring any forgeries); namely that Gospatric Earl of Dunbar was the son of Gospatrick, Earl, brother of Dolfin [Durham Cathedral Muniments: Miscellaneous Charters, Ch. 779].
that Waldef. Earl of Dunbar was the son of Gospatric, Earl of Dunbar [Durham Cathedral Muniments: Miscellaneous Charters, Ch. 787]
that Patrick I, Earl of Dunbar was the son of Waldef, Earl of Dunbar [Durham Cathedral Muniments: Miscellaneous Charters, Ch. 764]
that Patrick II, Earl of Dunbar was the son of Patrick I, Earl of Dunbar [Durham Cathedral Muniments: Miscellaneous Charters, Ch. 785]' and so on.
>Further to my last post. the following appears to be the reference in Historia Regum regarding the Earls of Northumberland/Dunbar.
Quo mortuo, Cospatricus, filius Maldredi filii Crinani, Willelmum regum adiens, multaemptum pecunia adeptus est comitatum Northymbrensium. Nam ex materno sanguine attinebat ad eum honor illius comitatus. Erat enim ex matre Algitha, filia Uchtredi comitis, quam habuit ex Algiva filia Agelredi Regis. Hanc Algitham pater dedit in conjugium Maldredo filio Crinani. Tenuit autem comitatum, donec rex causis ex supradictis ei auferret. Fugiens ergo ad Malcolmum non multo post Flandriam navigio petit. Cui post aliquantum tempus Scotiam reverso, donavit ei rex supradictus Dunbar cum adjacentibus terris in Lodoneio, ut ex his, donec lætiora redirent tempora, se suosque procuraret. Iste Cospatricus est pater Dolfini, Walthevi, et Cospatrici. Post Cospatricum datus est comitatus Walthevo, Siwardi comitis filio [Symeon of Durham. Symeonis Monachi Opera Omnia: Historia Regum. ed. Thomas Arnold. 2 vols. (London, 1885). Vol. 2, p. 199. Rolls Series no. 75].
From what I can gather it was Skene who promoted the connection between the two Crinans. Anderson's "Scottish Annals from English Chroniclers" pp. 80-1 cites vol. 1, pp. 215-6 of Symeon's work (from his "De Obsessione Dunelmi"), which Anderson translates as:
"But afterwards when he, that is, Utred, advanced more and more in the art of war, king Ethelred gave to him as wife his daughter Elfgiva. And by her he had a daughter Aldgitha, whom her father gave in marriage to Maldred, son of Crinan the thane; and by her Maldred had Gospatric, the father of Dolfin, of Waldeve and of Gospatric."
Anderson does take some liberties in his translations (most notably with respect to names), so the original Latin obviously needs to be checked.

Daughter, married Ralph fitz Olaf. She brought a moiety of the smaller manor of Wilbraham in marriage. She may have been the sister of Robert.
There is no direct statement that Ralph married a daughter of Robert, the Chamberlain of the earl of Richmond, but the conclusion is derived from the evidence of Henry II's confirmation charter that his wife brought with her a moiety of the smaller manor of Wilbraham, and a garbled account given in 1279 from a Hundred Roll entry abstracted by Farrer in Feudal Cambridgeshire, p.122/123, as follows: "An unknown King of England held (the vill of) Great Wilburham in his own hands and gave one moiety thereof to Nele de Chaunberlein with the advowson of the church; the said Nele gave a moiety of his moiety to one Robert de (Insu)la with one of his daughters, which tenement Robert de Insula now holds, namely 200 a., of the honor of Richmond after Nele's death 100 a. descended hereditarily to his 5 daughters, of which Edmund de Sardelowe holds 90a. for the term of his life of John de Lovetot, who held of the honor of Brittany; R.Hund.

A negotiation was entered into the following year, by which Carlisle was suffered to remain in the possession of David. He died there in 1153.
David was brought up in the English court, where his sister was married to Henry I. By marriage and kingly sanction he had acquired the huge 'Honour of Huntingdon' with broad lands spreading across the counties of Huntingdonshire & Northamptonshire where several Anglo-Norman families who became prominent in Scottish history resided...

     Donald, 6/10th Earl of Mar, was the son of William 5/9th Earl of Mar and Murial Unknown.
Donald, 6/10th Earl of Mar, married Ellen of Wales ferch Llywelyn the Great, daughter of Llywelyn The Great ab Iowerth Prince of Gwynedd and Joan,. There is also a record of a "Helen" daughter of "Llywelyn of Wales" who married Mormaer Maol Choluim II, Earl of Fife and later married Domhnall I, Earl of Mar. The dates appear to rule out this being Elen, since Maol Chaluim II did not die until 1266 while Elen's death is recorded in 1253. Some genealogists propose the existence of another Elen, an illegitimate daughter born towards the end of Llywelyn's life, but there is no clear evidence for this. Another possibility is that this Helen might have been an illegitimate daughter of Llywelyn the Last born when he was a young man, but there is also no evidence of the theory being true.More likely this lady was Susannah ferch Llywelyn ab Iorwerth, who was sent to England in 1228 and married the earl of Fife in the summer of 1237. Ref: G.E. Cockayne "Complete Peerage" Update.
Donald, 6/10th Earl of Mar, married Murial Unknown.
     Donald died between 1297 and 1302. Domhnall (or Donald) Ehislach, 6th Earl, d. 1295 or 1297.
Wikipedia (Sep 2010) states: Domhnall I Earl of Mar - Domhnall mac Uilleim (Donald, William's son) - was the seventh known Mormaer of Mar, ruling from 1276 until his death somewhere between 1297 and 1302.
Domhnall was a strong supporter of the Bruce cause during the crisis of the late 13th century. He was at Norham in 1292, probably in the camp of Robert de Brus, then Earl of Carrick.
He was married to Helen (sometimes called Ellen), natural daughter of Llywelyn the Great of Wales, who herself had previously been married to Mormaer Maol Choluim II, Earl of Fife. By Helen, he had three sons, including his successor Gartnait, and two daughters. His daughter Isabella of Mar was the first wife of Robert I of Scotland and mother of Marjorie Bruce who married Walter 6th High Steward, the parents of Robert II and the Royal Stewart Kings of Scotland.
The last record of a living Domhnall comes from 1297, and the earliest record of his son Gartnait as Mormaer is from 1305, creating the range of Domhnall's possible year of death to somewhere in between these two points. However, a document dating to 1302, containing terms of reconciliation between Edward I and Robert, stipulates that Robert should act as warden of Gartnait, implying that Domhnall had just died..

     Donald, II, King of Scotland was the son of Constantine MacAlpin.
     Donald died in 863.

     Donnchadh died circa 1244. Donnchadh (or Duncan) Ehislach, 4th Earl.

Duncan Earl of Carrick married Avelina FitzWalter or FitzAlan or Stewart, daughter of Alan FitzWalter High Steward of Scotland. There is some uncertainty about this marriage. Duncan Earl of Carrick was born before 1170. He was the son of Gilbert of Galloway.

The Medieval genealogy mailing list discussed:
> What source is there to show that Duncan mac Crinan died in 1040? Who ruled Scotland from that time till his father's death in 1045?
Duncan I of Scotland was killed by or at the behest of Macbeth, Mormaer of Moray on 14 Aug 1040 [1]. The only primary source I have at hand is the Annals of Ulster which states under the year 1040: "Donnchad son of Crínán, king of Scotland, was killed by his own people." [2]
Macbeth reigned from 1040 until 1057 at which time he was killed (on 15 Aug at Lumphanan, Aberdeenshire) by Mael Coluim III mac Donnchad [3]. I can't seem to find any entry in AU for this but there is a brief mention of his stepson Lulach's death the year after (1058):
"Lulach son of Gilla Comgain, over-king of Scotland, was killed in battle by Mael Coluim son of Donnchad." [4].
     Duncan died on 15 August 1040 in Pitgaveny, near Elgin, Moray, Scotland. He was killed by Macbeth (Mac Bethad mad Finclaidh).

     Duncan, II, King of Scotland was born circa 1060 in Scotland. He was son of Malcolm III (Máel Coluim mac Donnchada) and his first wife Ingibiorg Finnsdottir, widow of Thorfinn Sigurdsson. He was the son of Malcom, III Canmor, King of Scotland.
Duncan, II, King of Scotland married Uchtreda, Queen of Scotland, daughter of Gospatrick Earl of Northumbria, circa 1094. Athelreda, who was married, about 1094, to Duncan II, King of Scots, (Donnchad II of Alba, son of King Malcolm Canmore) and became the mother of William Fitz Duncan, Earl of Moray, who lived until 1151 or later, as in that year King David I restored to him his honour of Skipton and others. His male line ended in the 'Boy of Egremont,' whose heiresses were his three sisters." There was another son named Gospatric, but of his history nothing is known.
