The above table is taken chiefly from Skene's Highlaanders of Scotland
On the death of Ewen de Ergadia, [the father of Mary the wife of Reginald (Olavesen), see Appendix C,] the clan Siol Cuinn, of which he had been the head, was divided into three clans, the chiefs of which were the three sons of Reginald Macgilbert, younger brother of Dugall, the son of Somerled. It will be seen by the above table that Ewen de Ergadia, the father of Mary the wife of Reginald King of Man, was second cousin, once removed, to Alaster de Ergadia, who married a daughter of the first Red Comyn.
In the Chartulary of Cupar, 1253-70, appears the name of Alexander de Ergadia, son of Duncan, son of Dugall, son of Reginald, as a witness.-(See also Appendix D.)
