    (Research):Richard married Hexstilda of Tynedale, grand-daughter of King Donald Ban. Their son William became Earl of Buchan through marriage, and his son from a previous marriage became Earl of Menteith and Lord of Badenoch.

    When King David I's line ended in 1286, the Comyns were the most powerful family in Scotland, and had claim to the empty throne on two counts. However the crown went to King John in 1292. He was the son of Devorguilla, David's great-grand-daughter, and John Balliol, founder of Balliol College in Oxford and another of Scotland's most powerful men.

    When King John was deposed the Balliols left Scotland and again the most powerful man in the country was a Comyn. Devorguilla's grandson was known as 'The Red Comyn' and ruled with complete self-interest, sometimes fighting for Scotland and at other times for England.

    Richard married Hextilda Fitzhuchtred Tynedale in 1145 in Tynedale, East Lothian, Scotland, United Kingdom. Hextilda (daughter of Huctred Hadria Tynedale and Bethoc Canmore) was born in 1122 in Tynedale, East Lothian, Scotland, United Kingdom; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
