bullet  General Notes:

Ethelred or Aethelred was also Abbot of DunkeldIn and this title carried the ownership of the lands belonging to the Church but involved no ecclesiastical functions. In the twelfth century the Abernethy family emerges as the Lay Abbots of the Culdee Irish Christian Monastery of Abernethy. Its members exercised great territorial rights, and presently assumed the title of Lords of Abernethy. "He furthermore says that, "In the last chapter we have seen that the Lord of Abernethy, the Earl of Fife, and the Priest of Wadele were the three supreme judges in connection with the law of Clan Macduff; some close blood connection seems to have existed between the Lord of Abernethy and the Earl of Fife, for the armorial bearings of the two families support the relationship". Ethelred, the first Earl of Fife and the first known to have adopted the surname "Abernethy", was succeeded by his son, Sir Alexander, who in turn was succeeded by his son, Sir Hugh. The title as Earl of Fife devolved upon his eldest son, Duncan.
