Matthew Scott, bishop-elect of Dunkeld (d.1230)

Biography
Watt and Murray, Fasti, 2, 124: Matthew was king's chancellor when he was elected to the see of Aberdeen in 1228 on the death of Bishop Adam, though his resigned his right in favour of the see of Dunkeld, after the death of Bishop Hugh in 1229. He appears as king's chancellor until 30 April 1230×31 March 1231, though not as 'bishop-elect' of either see. He perhaps died as elect of Dunkeld in late 1230. Watt, Graduates, 489-90: Matthew first appears as royal chancellor on 5 June 1227. He appears as 'Master Matthew de Scotia' on 16 November 1218, in Paris. He may have been a chaplain in 1223 as well as a canon of Dunkeld, found in 1214×29, though there is no proof that these were one in the same. He might have been the Master Matthew Scott who held the archdeaconry of Cleveland during this time; or, he may be Matthew of Aberdeen
