He was the founder of Galloway, probably in the space left when the Norwegian <a href="/wiki/Olavsson-35" title="Olavsson-35">King Magnus III Berrføtt</a> ("Barelegs") led a campaign of subjugation in the Irish Sea world.<sup id="_ref-wiki_0" class="reference"><a href="#_note-wiki" title="">[1]</a></sup> </p><p>Fergus was almost certainly a native Galwegian his likely power base was the area of Galloway between the rivers Dee and Cree. It may have been after his marriage that Fergus began calling himself rex Galwitensium ("King of Galloway"). However, while his possible father-in-law lived, Fergus, like King David I of Scotland), seems to have remained a faithful "vassal" to Henry.<sup id="_ref-wiki_1" class="reference"><a href="#_note-wiki" title="">[1]</a></sup> </p> <a name="Titles"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> Titles </span></h3> <p>Fergus, Lord of Galloway gained the title of Lord of Galloway.<sup id="_ref-Cokayne_0" class="reference"><a href="#_note-Cokayne" title="">[2]</a></sup> </p> <a name="Parents"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> Parents </span></h3> <p>Unknown<a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=rnLvAAAAMAAJ&dq=fergus%20of%20galloway&pg=PA56#v=onepage&q&f=false" class="external autonumber" title="https://books.google.com/books?id=rnLvAAAAMAAJ&dq=fergus%20of%20galloway&pg=PA56#v=onepage&q&f=false" rel="nofollow">[2]</a>.<sup id="_ref-0" class="reference"><a href="#_note-0" title="">[3]</a></sup> </p> <a name="Marriage_and_Issue"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> Marriage and Issue </span></h3> <p>Fergus married Joan or Elizabeth.<a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=rnLvAAAAMAAJ&dq=fergus%20of%20galloway&pg=PA56#v=onepage&q&f=false" class="external autonumber" title="https://books.google.com/books?id=rnLvAAAAMAAJ&dq=fergus%20of%20galloway&pg=PA56#v=onepage&q&f=false" rel="nofollow">[3]</a> illegitimate daughter of Henry I of England<sup id="_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#_note-1" title="">[4]</a></sup> There are disputes about her, including an unproven idea that she was Fergus' mistress before marriage.

In the former campaign, he took control of the Western Isles of Scotland, and deposed King Lagmann of Man. (Incidentally, this campaign also brought him to Wales, where he killed the Earl of Chester and the Earl of Shrewsbury, who were at war with the Prince of Gwynedd). In this campaign, Magnus almost certainly brought Galloway under his control. Magnus, moreover, gained the recognition of these conquests from the then-king of Alba, Etgair mac Maíl Coluim.<sup id="_ref-wiki_2" class="reference"><a href="#_note-wiki" title="">[1]</a></sup> </p><p>Fergus was the resurrector of the Bishopric of Whithorn, the patron of new abbeys (e.g. Dundrennan Abbey). On 9 December 1125 Pope Honorius II wrote to the Bishop-elect of Whithorn, ordering him to appear before the Archbishop of York. The would-be Bishop was a cleric called Gille Aldan (Gille Aldain), and the Archbishop was Thurstan. York had been coming under increasing pressure from the ambitions of Canterbury, and the northern English metropolitan had only two suffragans (Durham and Man). He needed three in fact to hold proper Archiepiscopal elections. It is likely that York and Fergus did a deal. </p><p>When Henry died in late 1135, Fergus’ relationship with the English kings crumbled, and David I of Scotland came to power. At this point Fergus is mentioned in contemporary sources. </p><p>In summer 1136, David I was in attendance at the consecration of Bishop John’s cathedral in Glasgow. Here was a big gathering of Scottish and Norman nobles. Fergus is recorded as having been in attendance too (with his son Uchtred), leading a list of southwestern Gaelic nobility.<sup id="_ref-wiki_3" class="reference"><a href="#_note-wiki" title="">[1]</a></sup> </p><p>He is first mentioned on 7 July 1136 when he was a witness to a charter by Kind David granting lands in Perdeyc or Partick to the church of Glasgow.<sup id="_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#_note-2" title="">[7]</a></sup> </p><p>In 1157, Máel Coluim’s position in southern Scotland was weakened by King Henry II. It was probably this blow to Máel Coluim’s power that gave Fergus his chance to reassert his independence. The Chronicle of Holyrood reports that Máel Coluim led three campaigns against Fergus in 1160.<sup id="_ref-wiki_4" class="reference"><a href="#_note-wiki" title="">[1]</a></sup> </p><p>In 1153, King David died and was succeeded by the boy-king, Máel Coluim IV. Fergus initially seems to have had a good relationship with the new King. In 1156, Fergus captured and handed over Máel Coluim’s rival Domnall mac Maíl Choluim, the MacHeth pretender to the Kingdom of the Scots.<sup id="_ref-wiki_5" class="reference"><a href="#_note-wiki" title="">[1]</a></sup> </p> <a name="End_of_Life"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> End of Life </span></h3> <p>Fergus’ later years were mired by the squabbling of his two sons. Perhaps his longevity was testing his sons’ patience. Walter Daniel reported that, in relation to the mid-1150s, Fergus was: </p> <dl><dd>“… incensed against his sons, and the sons raging against the father and each other … The King of Scotland could not subdue, nor the bishop pacify their mutual hatreds, rancour and tyranny. Sons were against father, father against sons, brother against brother, daily polluting the unhappy little land with bloodshed.”<sup id="_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#_note-3" title="">[8]</a></sup> </dd></dl> <a name="Death"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> Death </span></h3> <p>Whether because of Gille Brigte and Uchtred, or royal invasions into Galloway by Mael Coluim IV, Fergus resigned his lordship, becoming a monk at Holyrood Abbey in 1160. He died the following year in 1161<sup id="_ref-s136_2" class="reference"><a href="#_note-s136" title="">[5]</a></sup> </p><p>Fergus retired into Holyrood Abbey and died there on 12 May 1161.<a href="http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/49360" class="external autonumber" title="http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/49360" rel="nofollow">[8]</a><a href="http://db.poms.ac.uk/record/person/244/" class="external autonumber" title="http://db.poms.ac.uk/record/person/244/" rel="nofollow">[9]</a><sup id="_ref-Cokayne_1" class="reference"><a href="#_note-Cokayne" title="">[2]</a></sup> (on the other hand, he might have died as a Monk on 12 May 1166 at Holyrood Abbey). </p><p>Note. Ancestral Roots states in Line 121B-26 that Fergus died in Holyrood Abbey in 1161 or 1166. Holyrood (or Holy Rude) Abbey was founded in 1128 (as the Augustinian Priory of the Holy Rude) at the order of King David I of Scotland. It was the site of many royal coronations and royal marriages. The roof of the abbey collapsed in the 18th century leaving it as it currently stands, a ruin. </p> <dl><dd>‘King Malcolm three times led an army into Galloway’<sup id="_ref-Holyrood_0" class="reference"><a href="#_note-Holyrood" title="">[9]</a></sup> </dd></dl> <dl><dd> "Fergus prince of Galloway took the canonical habit in the church of Holyrood in Edinburgh, and gave to (the canons) the vill that is called Dunrod"<sup id="_ref-Holyrood_1" class="reference"><a href="#_note-Holyrood" title="">[9]</a></sup> </dd></dl> <p>He became a legend after his death, although his actual life is clouded in mystery. </p> <a name="Descendants"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> Descendants </span></h3> <p>Fergus was grandfather of Godred II, king of Man. </p> <a name="Sources"></a><h2> <span class="mw-headline"> Sources </span></h2> <ol class="references"><li id="_note-wiki">↑ <sup><a href="#_ref-wiki_0" title="">1.0</a></sup> <sup><a href="#_ref-wiki_1" title="">1.1</a></sup> <sup><a href="#_ref-wiki_2" title="">1.2</a></sup> <sup><a href="#_ref-wiki_3" title="">1.3</a></sup> <sup><a href="#_ref-wiki_4" title="">1.4</a></sup> <sup><a href="#_ref-wiki_5" title="">1.5</a></sup> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fergus_of_Galloway" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Fergus_of_Galloway">Wikipedia: Fergus of Galloway</a></li> <li id="_note-Cokayne">↑ <sup><a href="#_ref-Cokayne_0" title="">2.0</a></sup> <sup><a href="#_ref-Cokayne_1" title="">2.1</a></sup> Cokayne, Gibbs, Doubleday, White, Warrand & Walden, 2000</li> <li id="_note-0"><a href="#_ref-0" title="">↑</a> Fergus' parents are UNKNOWN (Maxwell, 1884).

Some other sources list Prince Fergus as a son of Olave the Red, King of Man and father-in-law of King Somerled, making Fergus not only Somerled's cousin through his grandfather Gilledomnan "Gilli" ) but also his brother-in-law through Somerled's wife Ragnhildis, the daughter of King Olave the Red. The MacDowalls of Galloway are the senior descendants in the male line of the princely house of Fergus, first of the ancient Lords of Galloway and the Rulers of Cumbria who maintained native leadership adopting Normanization under King David I of Scotland (1124-1153). Today the family is known as the MacDowalls. The Chief of the MacDowalls of Garthland (senior stirp) holds the title as Baron of Garthland and Castlesemple. <p>Galloway is an ancient division of the southwestern corner of Scotland. Galloway was to the Gaelic speaker, the land of the "Gall" (stranger), where the old Pictish language was spoken. The name Galloway persisted as the Gaelic people came across from Ireland displacing the earlier inhabitants, mostly local tribes, Anglo-Saxon invaders and Norse settlers. The Rinns of Galloway and the coast of Northern Ireland are only 18 miles apart. The two areas shared a mutual language and celtic culture for centuries. Galloway still remains a pastoral land, lonely and uncultivated in many areas. Gallowegians or (Gallovidans) have always considered themselves a race apart and are fiercely independent to this day. They are the legendary "Wild Scots" of Galloway and are known in history as being fierce warriors. </p><p>-- From Eire, the Isles, Alba and Galloway, COPYRIGHT © 2000 Leo B.

Such appears to have been the case with Fergus' contemporary Freskin, a significant settler in Moray, who was styled de Moravia.[15] <p>One source that may possibly cast light on Fergus' familial origins is Roman de Fergus,[16] a mediaeval Arthurian romance, mainly set in southern Scotland,[17] which tells the tale of a knight who may represent Fergus himself.[18] The name of the knight's father in this source is a form of the name borne by Fergus' neighbouring contemporary Somairle mac Gilla Brigte, Lord of Argyll (died 1164), and could be evidence that Fergus' father bore the same name.[19] Conversely, the name of the knight's father could suggest that this character represents the historical Somairle himself, rather than the father of Fergus.[20] Whatever the case, there is reason to suspect that the romance is a literary pastiche or parody of the compositions of Chrétien de Troyes (fl. c.1160c.1181);[21] and besides the coincidence of names, the tale has little to commend it as an authoritative source for the historical Fergus.[22] </p><p>Despite the uncertainty surrounding his origins, it is possible that Fergus was of Norse-Gaelic and native Gallovdian ancestry.[23] Traditionally, the Gallovidians appear to have looked towards the Isles instead of Scotland, and the core of his family's lands seems to have centred in valley of the river Dee and the coastal area around Whithorn, regions of substantial Scandinavian settlement.[24] Whatever the case, the fact that Fergus died as an old man in 1161 suggests that he was born before 1100.[25] </p> </div> <!-- for G2G-style comment layout --> <div class="comment-info small"> <a href="#comment_3585499">posted</a> <time class="timeago" datetime="2019-03-11T00:02:01Z">Mar 11, 2019</time> by <a href="https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Hudnall-429" title="Hudnall-429">[Living Hudnall]</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <script src="/skins/wikitree/comment.js.pagespeed.jm.tfE5YW9pu6.js"></script> <!-- don't list Unlisted or have any links.
