William I of Scotland married Ermengarde de Beaumont.  (Henry II had the right to chose William's bride because of the Treaty of Falaise and consequently chose a grand daughter of Henry I.  Edingburgh Castle was her dowry.)  Through this marriage William had four children - Margaret (1193-1259); Isabella (1195-1253); Alexander II of Scotland (1198-1249); Marjorie (1200-1244).
William, known as the Lion, reigned from 9th Dec 1165 to 4th Dec 1214.  He died in Stirling and lies buried in Arbroath Abbey.
