    Notes for Somerled MacGillebride:
    King of Argyll. His father was a thane of Argyll, expelled from hispossessions and forced to conceal himself in Morven. Somerled led the menof Morven to resist a band of Norse pirates and Somerled's success led tohis father regaining his possessions and gave him control of a large partof Argyll.

    Malcolm IV became jealous of Somerled's power and demanded Somerled toresign his possessions to him. Somerled declined and war was declared in1164, when Somerled sailed with 160 galleys up the Clyde river and landednear Renfrew. Battled ensued and Somerled and one son were killed and hisforces were defeated.
