[Footnote 4:  See Dalrymple’s Collections (1705), p. 153 for the date of Malcolm’s marriage with St. Margaret, p. 157, where he puts the marriage in 1070, after three years’ courtship.  See also pp. 163 and 164.  Sir Archibald Dunbar puts Ingibjorg’s marriage in 1059, as stated above, and if Thorfinn was an Earl from his birth in 1008, he would have been 50 years earl in 1058.  As a king’s grandson he might well have been an earl from his birth.]

[Footnote 6:  The O.S. mentions only Duncan.  The other sons seem doubtful.  But see Dunbar, Scottish Kings, p. 31 and notes, and p. 38.]
