Gille Críst, Earl of Angus

Gilla Críst of Angus, ruled until 1206 as Mormaer of Angus. He was a son of Gille Brigte of Angus and younger brother of Adam of Angus.

Almost nothing is known of him, except that he married Marjorie of Huntingdon, the daughter of Henry, Earl of Huntingdon and Ada de Warenne, and that he was succeeded by his son Donnchad before 1206. His daughter Bethóc (Beatrix) was probably that "Bethoc" known to have been married to Walter Stewart, 3rd High Steward of Scotland and mother to Alexander Stewart, 4th High Steward of Scotland.
