As in Creation, my clan had an earlier start before the Sons of Donald......before, Clan Ranald..... CLAN MacDonald - MacDonald of the Isles A Unique and important place in Scottish history, and particularly in the history of the Hebrides and the southwestern Highlands, is occupied by the great figure of Somerled of the Isles. "Somerledi" or summer sailors, is said to have been the term applied to the Norwegian adventurers whose raids upon the coasts of this country were usually made during the pleasanter months of the year, but so far as history is concerned the name is that of the great island lord who reigned as an independent prince of the West and the Isles throughout the middle of the twelfth century. It is generally asserted in the Highland genealogies of to-day that Somerled was a Celtic chief by whose efforts the Norsemen had been driven from the mainland of Scotland, and who had wrestled the islands of the west from the Norwegian Olaf, (direct descendant to Clan Ranald) King of Man, before setting himself up as King of the Isles and Lord of Argyll, but the facts of history make it appear more likely that he was himself a Norseman, and we know his wife was Elffrica daughter of Olaf of Man. When the High Steward, settled at Renfrew fo the purpose by David I, of Scotland, began to drive back the Norse invaders who were then thrusting their settlements into the high reaches of the First of Clyde his chief opponent was Somerled of the Isles. (RIN 30423) The climax of the struggle between them was reached in 1164, when Somerled landed a great force on the shores of Renfrewshire, and fought a pitched battle with the forces of the High Steward near the headquarters of the latter at Renfrew itself. In that battle Somerled fell, along with Gillecolane, his son by his first marriage, and it seems possible that the Barochan Cross, with its interesting and appropriate sculptures, still standing near the scene of the battle, forms a memorial of the event. (Continued under Somerled (RIN 30423.) ---------------------------- History Towards the middle of the 9th century, before the present border between England and Scotland had been determined, there were two Gedworths (as Jedburgh was then known). One of them became the Jedburgh we know now, the other was four miles to the south. According to Symeon of Durham , Ecgred , bishop of Lindisfarne from 830AD to 845AD, gifted the two villages of the same name to the See of Lindisfarne.[2] The southerly Gedworth was the place of Ecgred's church, the first church in the parish. The present town was distinguished from the long disappeared south village by UBI CASTELLUM EST meaning, 'where the castle is'.[3] The only solid evidence of Ecgred's church came from Symeon of Durham when he described the burial, at the church of Geddewerde, of Eadulf, one of the assassins of William Walcher , Bishop of Durham . Tomb at Jedburgh Abbey In 1118, prior to his ascension to the Scottish throne, Prince David established a foundation of canons regular of the order of St. Augustine at, what is now Jedburgh. The foundation appeared to have the status of 'priory' in the early years and a man by the name of Daniel was described as the Prior of Geddwrda in 1139. The church was later raised to the status of monastery before becoming in the years prior to King David's death in 1153[4] probably in 1147,[5] a fully fledged abbey and dedicated to the Virgin Mary .[6] It has to be mentioned that over the years, Jedburgh has been described by 83 different names or spellings.[7] After the death King David I of Scotland , the patronage and privileges of the abbey were accorded, first by David's son, Prince Henry then by his grandsons Malcolm IV of Scotland and William I of Scotland also known as William the Lion . The nave and the choir were built in the 13th century and were in place by the time Alexander III of Scotland married Yolande, daughter of the Compte de Dreux in 1288 at the church. The great abbey was said to contain the finery of the best of Norman and early English Architecture. The Abbey Church of St. Mary of Jedeworth was growing in stature and importance and the abbot was even invited to attend Scottish Parliaments. As well as the lands and chapels in southern Scotland, Jedburgh Abbey owned great lands in Northumberland . In 1296, the Abbot of Jedburgh swore fealty to Edward I of England at Berwick-on-Tweed . Edward intended to rule the abbey and presented William de Jarum as the new Abbot of Jedburgh in 1296. After the defeat of the Earl of Surrey in 1297 at Stirling at the hands of William Wallace , the abbey was pillaged and wrecked by the English as retribution. Robert I of Scotland (The Bruce) continued to patronise the church during his reign in the early 14th century. In 1346, after the Scotish defeat at the Battle of Neville's Cross , the English once again slighted the church. Later that century, in 1370, David II of Scotland was instrumental in the completion of the north transept we can still see today. The abbey faced more torture and destruction in 1410,1416 and by the Earl of Warwick in 1464. In 1523, the town and abbey were set ablaze by the Earl of Surrey. The abbey faced more indignity in 1544 at the hands of the Earl of Hertford . The end came for the great Abbey of St. Mary of Jedburgh in 1560 and the coming of the Scottish Reformation.[8] Jedburgh Grammar School was founded by the monks of Jedburgh Abbey in the late 15th. century.[9] The Reformation and beyond When the Protestant Reformation arrived in 1560, the monks were allowed to stay but the abbey was used as the parish kirk for the reformed religion. In 1671 the church was removed to the western part of the nave for safety reasons. This situation persisted until, in 1871, it was considered unsafe to continue worship at the abbey church and a new parish church was built. The Marquis of Lothian immediately started work on the restoration of the great church but in 1917 the church dedicated to St. Mary nearly 800 years earlier was handed over to the state and is now in the care of Historic Scotland .[10] SUFFIX: Also shown as I.
