  Gender	Male
  Death	Bef 1269
  Notes	13 and I4 MAGNUS, Jarl of Orkney and EARL OF CAITHNESS [SCT], is statedto have been son of Gillebride, EARL OF ANGUS [SCT], by his 2nd wife,sister of Harald Ugni, EARL OF CAITHNESS (who died 1198), to whom thisMagnus, though an infant, was apparently recogniscd as successor in hishalf of the Earldom. In Scots Peerage the view is held that he was son ofGilchrist, EARL OF ANGUS, and grandson of Gillebride abovementioned. Itseems, however, quite probable that he was the same person as Malcolm,EARL OF ANGUS, son of Duncan, son of Gilchrist, son of Gillebride, whichMalcolm is named as Earl of Angus and Caithness in 1232. The whole matteris, however, very obscure, cf. the account given in vol. i, sub ANGUS. In1232, at all events, he was Earl of Caithness. He died 1239. The otherhalf of Caithness appears to have been possessed by FRESKIN (of Moray),LORD OF DUFFUS (who died before 1269), in right of his wife Joan (theinheritor of Strathnaver) who, possibly, was daughter and heir of EarlJohn [VIII, 12].
