BirthHe was born on 26 August 1031.5
NoteThe future Malcolm III slew Macbeth, King of Strathclyde, at the Battle of Lumphanan (Macbeth is buried on the Isle of Iona). MacBeth had previously killed Malcolm's father, Duncan I. on 15 August 1057 in Aberdeenshire, ScotlandG.6,7
ReignHe reigned Between 17 March 1058 and 13 November 1093.3
MarriageHe married first Ingibiorg Finnsdottir daughter of Earl Finn Arnason, About 1060.8,9,10
BattleBetween 1061 and 1093 Malcolm III Caenmor (Canmore or Ceann-Mor) --, King of Scots, "led five raids into England, devastating the northern counties and bringing about a great invasion of his own country by William the Conqueror in 1072, and by his son Robert in 1080".4
MarriageHe married second Saint Margaret --, Queen of Scotland, daughter of Edward Aetheling and Agatha --, of Hungary,, in 1069 in Dunfermline Abbey, Fife, Scotland, 56.0699, -3.4636G, Margaret was the second wife of Malcolm.1,11,5,12
Depiction of the wedding of King Malcolm III and Margaret.
The record of marriage of Malcolm and Margaret in the Peterborough version of the Anglo Saxon Chronicles. Held in the Oxford Bodleian Library.
DeathMalcolm III Caenmor (Canmore or Ceann-Mor) --, King of Scots, died on 13 November 1093 at Alnwick Castle, Northumberland, England, 55.415867, -1.706080G. Malcolm was slain along with his eldest son Edward during the seige of Alnwick Castle.13,1,2
BurialHe was buried in Tynemouth Priory, Northumberland, EnglandG.13
ReburialHe was reburied in 1115 in Dunfermline Abbey, before the High Altar, Dunfermline, Fife, ScotlandG. It is well known that Alexander I, third son of Malcolm III, was given permission by the English authorities to exhume his father's remains, and to take them to Dunfermline. The exact year that this even took place is unknown. The date of Malcolm's exhumation is favoured to be 1115, the middle year of the reign of Alexander I, and the date that the Church of the HolyTrinity was completed. It is thought unlikely that Alexander I would exhume his father's remains before the church was founded and completely finished with all of its details. Historians generally agree that Alexander I finished the church that Malcolm III founded ca. 1072, in 1115 at the west end.13
Dunfermline Abbey.
ReburialHe was reburied in 1580 in El Escorial Monastery, Madrid, SpainG. The remains of Malcolm & Margaret were removed from Dunfermline by Abbot George Durie to safeguard them from pending attacks from prostestant reformers. They were enshrined at the royal monastery, San Lorenzo de El Escorial, at the instigation of King Philip II of Spain.14,15

King Edgar the Peaceful (ca943-975), depicted in a stained glass window in All Souls College Chapel, Oxford, England. From the All Souls web site the following was extracted: "The large stained glass window in the west wall is known as the Royal Window. Dating from the mid-15th-century but much restored, it was originally located in the Old Library of All Souls. The kings depicted in the window originally included Constantine, Arthur, Ethelbert, Oswald, Alfred, Edmund, Athelstan, Edgar, Edward the Martyr, Edward the Confessor, and Henrys IV-VI." This image is a scan from the book "The National Portrait Gallery, History of the Kings and Queens of England", by David Williamson.
