Notes:		 Gospatric or Cospatric (from the Cumbric "Servant of Saint Patrick"), was Earl of Northumbria, or of Bernicia, and later lord of sizable estates around Dunbar. While his ancestry is uncertain, his descendants held the Earldom of Dunbar, later known as the Earldom of March, in south-east Scotland until 1435. He made a pilgrimage to Rome in 1061. A story from this pilgrimage is that he saved his traveling companion, Tostig Godwinson, Earl of Northumbria, from being kidnapped. Being well-dressed, he was mistaken for Tostig and played along until his companion had time to escape. He paid William I, King of England a large fee so he could succeed as Earl of Northumberland in December 1067, although he did have a hereditary claim through his mothers family. In 1072 old charges (having taken part in a massacre at Durham) were brought against him and he was deprived of the earldom of Northumberland, fleeing to Scotland. Simeon of Durham records that he fled to Scotland and was granted "Dunbar with the lands adjacent in Lothian” and in the Mercia by King Malcolm Canmore. This ‘’earldom without a name’’ in the Scots-controlled northern part of Bernicia would later become the Earldom of Dunbar Gospatric did not long survive in exile according to Roger of Hovedens chronicle: Not long after this, being reduced to extreme infirmity, he sent for Aldwin and Turgot, the monks, who at this time were living at Meilros, in poverty and contrite in spirit for the sake of Christ, and ended his life with a full confession of his sins, and great lamentations and penitence, at Ubbanford, which is also called Northam.. Gospatric died circa 1075 and was buried in the porch of the church at Northam. 
Notes: Genealogy It is believed that Gospatric was born c.1040 in Northumberland, England. Simeon of Durham names "Cospatric son of Maldred son of Crinan" when recording that he was appointed Earl of Northumberland, a title he held from Dec 1067. This same parentage is given by Roger of Hoveden. If this is correct, Maldred was apparently not the son of Crínáns known wife Bethóc, daughter of the Scots king Malcolm II, as Gospatrics descendants made no such claim when they submitted their pleadings in the Great Cause to determine the succession to the kingship of the Scots after the death of Alexander III in 1286. Alternatively, rather than being descended from a half-brother of King Duncan I (Donnchad mac Crínáin), Gospatric may have been the youngest son of Earl Uchtred the Bold (died 1016). Another reconstruction would make Gospatric the grandson of Uchtreds discarded first wife, Ecgfritha, daughter of Aldhun, Bishop of Durham, through Sigrida, her daughter with Kilvert son of Ligulf. Whatever his parentage may have been, Gospatric was clearly an important figure in Northumbria and Cumbria, with ties to the family of Earl Uchtred. Gospatric married Aethelreda, Princess of England about 1057. There were six children. Simeon of Durham and Roger of Hoveden name three sons and a daughter (Dolfin, Gospatric, Waltheof and Uchtreda) but other documents show additional children.
