-The competing claims to the [[Scotland|Scottish]] throne ran back through five generations, commencing with [[David I]], king between 1124CE and 1153.
-'''David''' married Matilda, the daughter of the Earl of Huntingdon.  Their son was '''Henry''' who inherited the [[earl]]dom, and married Ada or Adela, daughter of the Earl of Surrey.<br>
-Henry and Adela's son was '''David''', named for his grandfather, who also became Earl of Huntingdon, and who also married a Matilda, in this case the daughter of the Earl of Chester.<br>
-This David had no sons, but two daughters.  The elder, Isobel, married Robert Bruce, lord and Annandale, whose son, grandson, and great-grandson, were all named '''Robert''', and this last Robert it was who claimed the throne on Queen Margaret's death.<br>
-David's younger daughter was named Margarent, and she married Alan, Lord of Galloway.  Their daughter, Devorguilla, married John Balliol, and his son, also '''John''', through his mother, claimed the throne.
