Research Notes:
Another daughter, Elizabeth, said to be Henry's youngest illegitimate child,
is mentioned in Scots Peerage (vol. iv, p136), and there said to have married
Fergus, Lord of Galloway. See also C. Warren Hollister, Monarchy, Magnates
and Institutions, 1986, p251, n.17. G.W.S. Barrow, Robert Bruce, 1988, p.331,
n.26, corrects doubts as to the marriage in the Scots Peerage. Ex inform.
Eric Thompson. [Ref: CP XI AppD p105(d) (with corr in CP XIV p582)]
In 1824 the Scottish historian Chalmers stated that King Henry I of England
had an illegitimate daughter, Elizabeth, who married Fergus, lord of Galloway
(died 1161). Scots Peerage vol 4 (Galloway) debunked Chalmers' statement,
noting that the authorities quoted by Chalmers "do not bear out his
assertion". Even so, other secondary sources have continued to repeat
Chalmers' unfounded claim. [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v1p8(22)]
There are several good independent sources referring to various descendants of
Fergus as relatives of Henry II or other English kings (one of which specifies
the relationship as coming through Henry's mother), leaving no reasonable
doubt that either Fergus or his wife was related to Henry II. Given the
general unlikelihood of a relationship between Fergus and Henry, a kinship
between Fergus's unknown wife and Henry II can be regarded as pretty solid.
It is the exact nature of that kinship where the "theorizing" comes in. The
simplest and most probable theory is that "NN" was an illegitimate daughter of
Henry I, but other alternatives, although somewhat unlikely, are not ruled out
by the known evidence. [Ref: Stewart Baldwin SGM 11/28/2005-195623]
the case making Sibyl, Queen of Scotland, a daughter of Sibyl is a weak
onomastic argument ... White attributes her as a daughter of Sibyl Corbet, but
as Thompson points out, without sufficient evidence [Ref: HenryII henry001
6/20/2010]
There are a number of contemporary sources in which a child or grandchild of
Fergus of Galloway is called a relative of a Plantagenet king of England,
without spelling out the exact relationship [see, e.g., Anderson (1908),
257-8, who quotes Benedict of St. Peterborough; Rog. Hov. i, 423], and these
references form the basis of attempts to determine the origin of the wife of
Fergus of Galloway (who is called Elizabeth in some late secondary sources,
but there seems to be no contemporary authority for her name). One
interesting, but unlikely, explanation for this relationship has been the
occasional statements that Fergus was married to a daughter of King William
Rufus, which can be traced back to a nineteenth century source [Cumming
(1857), 49], but the most common (and evidently simplest) explanation would be
that Fergus was married to an otherwise unknown illegitimate daughter of Henry
I. Not only would that be the closest feasible relationship between the two
dynasties, but the obvious alternate suggestion that the wife of Fergus was a
member of the Scottish royal family (from which Henry II was also descended)
has the drawback that the relationship would be more distant, and that no
sources have been produced stating that the Galwegian rulers were close kin to
the Scottish kings. Thus, the suggestion that Fergus was married to an
illegitimate daughter of Henry I remains the most likely explanation of the
known evidence. [Ref: HenryII henry001 6/20/2010]
