Beatrice 1
User ID: N817. Beatrice married Bartholomew DE LESLIE (LESLYN) Chamberlain to Queen Margaret of Scots.1 (Bartholomew DE LESLIE (LESLYN) Chamberlain to Queen Margaret of Scots was born about 1040 and died about 1121 1.) Marriage Notes: "Bartholomew (de Leslie), the founder of the family, was a noble Hungarian, who came to Scotland with Queen Margarite, 1067. He was much esteemed by King Malcolm Ceanmore, who conferred upon him grants of lands in various parts of Scotland, but particularly in the district of the Garioch, in the County of Aberdeen, where the ruins of the old castle of Leslie still remain in the parish of Leslie. It would appear that he married a sister of King Malcolm. We find in the 'Genealogical Tree of the Royal Family of Scotland,' published in 1792, and approved by the Lyon office, that Princess Beatrix, daughter of King Duncan, and sister to Malcolm Ceanmore, married Bartholomew Leslie, (of whom all the Leslies in Scotland are descended), by whom he had a son Malcolm, who succeeded him. Bartholomew was chamberlain to Queen Margarite." |
