"It is universally acknowledged, that the Macleods of Scotland are descended of the Norvegian kings of Man, of whom we shall heregive a brief account, as recorded in the chronicle of thatisland, published with Cambden's Britannia, anno 1586.

It is acknowledged universally that the Macleods ofScotland, sprang from the Norwegian Kings of Man, of whichmonarchs the following is a brief narrative, as recorded in the Chronicle of the Island, published with Cambden's Britannia,anno 1586. I. Godred, surnamed Crowan, son of Harold, the Black, being appointed sovereign of Man, and the Western Isles,by Harold, the Imperious, came with a fleet, and army, and tookpossession of his kingdom, anno 1066, but the superiority stillremained with the kings.

"The founder of the last dynasty to rule Man and the Isles was Godred Crovan, a son of Harold the Black of 'Ysland' (i.e. Iceland). His origin is obscure, although various conjectures have been made to trace his genealogy. It is, however, certain that he was not a mere adventurer. He derived a considerable amount of support from the Hebrides and he was successful in establishing a dynasty that lasted for two centuries and was never seriously challenged. These circumstances argue that he was in some way related to some of the previous Kings of the Isles. "He first came to notice in1066, when we find him in conjunction with Godred, son ofSigtrygg, king of man and the Isles at the time, assisting King Harold Hardrada of Norway and Tostig Godwinson, in the invasion of England. The invaders were routed by Harold Godwinson, King of England and a brother of Tostig at theBattle of Stamford Bridge. King Harold of Norway and Tostig were slain. The two Godreds managed to escape to the Isle ofMan. King Godred Sigtryggson of Man and the Isles died shortlyafterwards and was succeeded by his son Fingal. Godred Crovanseems to to have returned to Iceland, but in 1071 he is inNorway, busily collecting an army to invade the Isle of Man. Hereceived strong naval support from the Hebrides, but for somereason, he met with stubborn opposition in Man. Despite twosetbacks, he finally triumphed in battle at Scaefell. Sograteful was he to his Hebridean supporters that he gave them achoice of taking possession of the island or plundering it.Eventually the Hebrideans received the South part of the islandin close proximity to his own residence; the people of Man weredriven into the Northern portion. All accounts agree thatGodred Crovan was a powerful ruler: he conquered Dublin and alarge part of Leinster: he forbade the Scots on the westernseaboard of Scotland to build any vessel requiring more than three bolts in its construction. He was married and left issue,three sons, Lagman, Harold and Olaf. He died of pestilence inIslay in 1087."
