Research Notes

1. The cited sources do not adequately support Unknown Moray as the spouse of Æthelred (Edelret mac Maíl Coluim) Dunkeld, including her children, Angus (Oenghus mac inghine Lulaich) Moray and Unknown Moray; all relationships have been removed. Perkins-11750 17:33, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
2. Alison Weir, wiithout confirming sources, adds a marriage, “Daughter (name not known) She married Aedh, Mormaer of Moray.” ^[3]
3. Angus MacKay speculates a marriage, “Aedh became mormaer, or Earl, in 1078, when Maelsnectan was expelled; in that same year he married the daughter of Lulach, who was Maelsnectan's sister.” ^[4]
4. Balfour suggests that her husband was likely named, Eth; “———— a daughter, who is recorded to have been the mother of Angus, the Earl of Moray…It is nowhere stated who her husband was, but it is generally maintained that his name was Eth…” ^[5]
5. There are no discoverable reliable sources for this person; she appears to be a duplicate of Moray-155 that shoud be merged. Perkins-11750 15:56, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
