		William spent most of his life raiding Northumbria trying to wrestle back his patrimony and it was the cause of much trouble for generations until it was finally agreed by Alexander III that it was part of England.
		Earl Duncan was a native Scot and not a Norman so there might be something in the fact that Thomas Colville might have been called "le Scot" to distinguish him from his conntemporary Philip de Colville who may well have been of Norman ancestry.
