It is more likely that Maldred, the father of Ulkill, fled,to Scotland and settled there at the same time as his brother Gospatric. Gospatric was recompensed bv the Scottish King with the Lordship of Dunbar, (Hoveden, vol. 1, p. 59.) and Maldred may have been granted the stewardy of the Lennox. It is supposed that Malcolm, King of the Cumbrians, was a son of Crinan the Thane, hereditary Lay-abbot of Dunkeld, and Seneschal of the isles, (1Rev. John Anderson in Sir J. B. Paul's "-New Douglas Peerage," vol. iii. p. 241. and in this connection it is interesting to note that Skene in his book, "The Hi-hlanders of Scotland," inclines to the theory that "the Earls of Lennox before they acquired that dignity were hereditary Seneschals of Stratherne and Bailies of the Abthainrie of Dull in Atholl. (Skene's "Tlie Highlanders of Scotland," vol. ii, p. 152.) Maldred is supposed to be the ancestor of Robert Fitz Maldred, Lord of Raby in Durham, and through him of the Nevills, Earls of Westmorland and Warwick and other families of that name. (New Douglas Peerage, vol. iii, p. 241.) He had three sons- Robert, Uchtred, and Ulkil. (Leckie of Leckie by R.G.E.L.)
