Biography
Duncan was the son of Malcolm II''s eldest daughter Bethoc and her husbandCrinan, Lay Abbot of Dunkeld. He was about 33 when he succeeded hisgrandfather. Married to a cousin of Siward, Earl of Northumberland, hemay have favoured southern ways and this is perhaps why he becameunpopular with his subjects. In 1039 he did march south to besiegeDurham but he was beaten off, with heavy losses. Duncan attempted toimpose his overlordship over Moray (an independent dynasty) by militaryforce. He was then twice defeated by the Earl of Orkney''s son,Thorfinn, before being killed in battle by Macbeth, one of hiscommanders, near Elgin, Morayshire on 14 August 1040. [Royal]
