Biography
Malcolm (Mael Coluim) (Ceann Mór) was the eldest son of Duncan I, king of Scots (d. 1040), and his wife, perhaps a cousin of Siward, earl of Northumbria (d. 1055). After his father was killed by Macbeth in 1040, Mael Coluim was in exile at the court of Edward the Confessor, king of England. He was given a small estate in Northamptonshire. After defeating Macbeth in July 1054, he took possession of Scotland south of the Tay and on 15 August 1057, he killed Macbeth at Lumphanan (ABD) and later killed Macbeth's stepson, Lulach (d. 1058), near Rhynie in Strathbogie. Around 1060 he married his first wife, Ingibjord (d. c. 1067), probable daughter of Thorfinn, earl of Orkney, son of Sigurd, with whom he had three sons, Duncan II (d. 1094), Donald and Malcolm. His second wife was Margaret (d. 1093), daughter of Edward Ætheling (d. 1057), sister of Edgar Ætheling, and great-niece of Edward the Confessor, whom he married in either 1069 or 1070. Malcolm and Margaret had the following children: Edward (d. 1093), Edmund, Edgar (d. 1107), Alexander I (d. 1124) and David I (d. 1153), and two daughters, one of whom, Matilda (Maud or Edith), married Henry I of England. Mael Coluim III was killed on 13 November 1093 near Alnwick by Archil Morel of Bamburgh, along with his son, Edward, who was also killed. Malcolm was buried at Tynemouth Priory. He was succeeded for a time by his brother, Donald III, though his eldest son from his first marriage, Duncan, later seized the throne. Duncan, however, was driven out by Donald and Edmund, son of Malcolm III, and was killed in 1094. http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/17859
