131. Bethoc of Scotland, 30G Grandmother, F. Born in 0984 in Atholl, Perthshire, Scotland. Bethoc of died in 1043, she was 59.

In 1000 when Bethoc of was 16, she married Crinan\Grimus de Mormaer the Thane, 30G Grandfather, M, son of Duncan Mormaer of Athol, M (0949-). Born in 0978 in Atholl, Perthshire, Scotland. Crinan\Grimus de Mormaer the died in Dunkeld, Perthshire, Scotland in 1045, he was 67.

In what was probably a shrewd political move, Malcolm II married his
daughter Bethoc to a representative of the other major center of
political power in Scotland, the church. Considering the close ties
between ruling dynasties and the offices of major abbacies throughout
Ireland and Scotland, it is also possible that Crinan was descended from
a king of the Scots, which would completely legitimize his son's rule.
The only notice of Crinan or Bethoc in the sources is Crinan's death in
1045, which was probably the result of an unsuccessful attempt to oust
Macbeth.
