Notes

Weis' "Ancestral Roots. . ." (170:15).

the following is taken from an Internet posting of Michael R. Davidson of

Edinburgh. Scotland, on 23 Oct 1995:

Donald II (Domnall mac Causantin)

Donald succeeded to the kingship in 889, when the joint-kings Eochaid

and Giric were deposed. Little is known of his reign excepting a battle,

probably in 893 when he defeated Viking raiders. He was, in turn, killed

by another Viking raid in 900. He was the first king to be called 'ri

Alban', or 'King of Scots' upon his death. He was succeeded by his

cousin Constantine II, who reigned for 43 years, an incredible period

for a early medieval king.

Children:

1. *Malcolm.
