Marriage: Unknown
Died: 954
Another name for Malcolm was Malcolm MacDonald.
General Notes:
Malcolm succeeded to the crown when his cousin Constantine II entered a monastery (943). He annexed Moray to the kingdom for the first time. After driving the Danes from York, the English king Edmund turned Cumbria over to Malcolm, apparently as a fief or seal of alliance. Later, when Norsemen again invaded the land, the Scots sent raids against the English, and in 954 the West Saxon king Eadred reunited the northern counties to his dominions. Malcolm was slain the same year.
Noted events in his life were:
• Acceded: King of the Picts and Scots (Alba), 943.
