Malcolm (of Leslie), son of Bertolf (d.c.1200)

Medieval Name: Máel Coluim
Modern Gaelic Name: Maol Caluim
Biography: The earliest known member of the family of Leslie was one Malcolm son of Bertolf. Nothing is known of Bertolf except that he was probably Flemish. The name Malcolm may suggest that the family was already settled on lands in England held by the Scottish royal family, and the most likely (though unprovable) explanation is that Malcolm was named after the Scottish king Malcolm IV, who was born in 1142, and was a member of a family living in the earldom of Huntingdon. Earl David of Huntingdon (1185-1219), younger brother of Kings Malcolm IV (1153-65) and William I 'the Lion' (1165-1214), granted the land (later barony) of Leslie in the Garioch, Aberdeenshire, to Malcolm son of Bertolf between 1172 and 1199, probably by 1185. Malcolm died around the year 1200. Contemporary charters suggest that Malcolm had a brother, Norman son of Bertolf, also living in Scotland, who lived into the 1200s. Malcolm's son, Norman, became constable of Inverurie Castle, also in the Garioch, by 1199. (MHH)
