• Notes

  George (or Georgius de Munro) assisted King Malcolm III in his fight against Macbeth, the Usurper 1054-1057. He was invited to the coronation of King Malcolm III in 1057 and was rewarded at the Parliament at Forfar where he was confirmed in his lands of Ferindonald, to which he had succeeded in 1039. The existence of this person is improbable because the name, George, is not found anywhere else in Scotland for the next 300 years, and George is supposed to have lived long before that name took root even in England. George's existence cannot be verified by any surviving documentation. Tradition says that he died at an advanced age.
