• Notes

  David of Scotland, Earl of Huntingdon, was knighted by King Henry II. in 1170. He accompanied King Richard I. to the Holy Land, with 500 men in his train; but upon his return, his fleet being scattered, he was made prisoner of the Egyptians, and eventually redeemed by the Venetians. He married in August 1190 Maud Keveloik, Countess of Huntingdon, eldest daughter of Hugh de Keveliok, Earl of Chester, and sister and co-heir of Ralph Keveloik, Earl of Chester. David died June 17, 1219 at Yardley, in Northamptonshire and was buried at Sawtrey Abbey.
