     John Ravilious wrote: Among the lesser-known Scots knights of the 13th century, possibly few have a more numerous progeny that Sir Alexander de Bonkil. His best known contribution to history was his daughter Margaret, wife of (1) Sir John Stewart, of Bonkil (slain at Falkirk, 22 Jul 1298) and (2) Sir David de Brechin (executed Aug 1320). Most non-royal Stewart lines, including the Lords Darnley, are traced from Margaret's first
marriage: the present (British) royal family has numerous descents from both marriages.
Sir Alexander's ancestry is not well known, with his father and grandfather conjectured to have a younger and elder Sir Ranulf de Bonkil, successively. His wife's name was Cristiana, but nothing more has been found concerning her to date [1].
In reviewing details provided by Stevenson concerning lands seized by King Edward I of England following the battle of Dunbar (April 1296), I noted the following extent recorded concerning of lands of Scots in Northumberland. In response to an order by King Edward, dated 10 May 1296, we find:
' Lilleburne et Schaudone et duae partes villae de Fenwyke (Alexandri de Bonkille). Non respondet de exitibus. ' [2]
The tenure of these lands may lead to identifying Sir Alexander's ancestry, or that of his wife. 'Lilleburne' was Lilburn, in Eglingham parish; 'Schaudone' was Shawdon, in Whittingham parish; Fenwyke' was most likely Fenwick in Kyloe parish, Northumberland (the other Fenwick is farther south in Stamfordham, but cannot yet be ruled out).

     John Ravilious wrote: Recently, an attempt to trace the connections of Christiana, wife of Sir Alexander de Bonkil and (incorrectly presumed) mother of Margaret (Bonkil) (Stewart) de Brechin failed to add to the known ancestry of Margaret. However, some success has been met with concerning the Bonkil ancestry itself.
The antiquarian John Denton of Cardew, in his manuscript concerning the gentry and nobility of Cumberland (ca. 1610), wrote the following concerning the Bonkill, or Bonekil, family of Uldale and Gilcrux, Cumberland:
' ULDALE. ... This mannor (being parcel of the barony of Allerdale), together with the mannor of Gilcrouse, was given by Waltheof the son of Earl Gospatrick, unto Adam the son of Lyolf brother of Phorme the son of Lyolf baron of Greystoke, from which Adam they descended by a daughter to the Bonekhills, who granted forth Gillcrouse to a younger brother Robert Bonekill: And the sons of the said Robert, Thomas Bonekill and Walter, gave away their inheritance in Gilcrouse to the abbey of Caldre, which Ranulph Bonekill Knt., then Lord Paramont both of Ulndale and Gilcruse, confirmed to the abbot. Sir Ranulph had issue Alexander, who had issue Adam, who gave Awerthwait parcel of his mannor of Ulndale to the priors of Carlisle. The said Adam had issue another Alexander Bonekill whose daughter and heir first married to John Stewart kinsman of the King of Scots, and afterwards to David Bregham a Scottish knight of great valour, and by him transferred the inheritance to the family of the Breghams. This David Bregham was a companion of W'm Walleys that was executed for treason at London, committed against Edw. Ist by resisting that king's attempt for the superior Lordship of Scotland....
David Bregham thereby forfeited his estate to Anthony Lord Lucy, then Lord of Allerdale. ' [1]
Only one element of the foregoing account has been found to be in error: as the ancestor of the Greystoke family was Forne fitz Sigulf, the alleged connection with Adam fitz Liulf does not bear out. The statement concerning John Stewart and the King of Scots is an anachronism, as he was not near related to the then King of Scots (his great-nephew would be King Robert II). The account as given above has otherwise been found to be substantially correct.
The recorded descent from Adam fitz Liulf is in fact missing one generation of names - that of his daughter, and her husband (NN de Bonkil, or Bonekil). Minus these individuals, adequate documentation has been found to reconstruct the pedigree from Adam fitz Liulf to Sir Alexander de Bonkil (d. 1300) and his daughter and heiress, Margaret (wife of Sir John le Stewart, and of Sir David de Brechin). This pedigree will be presented in the next post of this thread.

As to the prior discussion concerning Cristiana, despite prior theories as to her origins, she was not a
(de) Ros; further, she is not ancestral to the Stewarts, of Bonkil or otherwise.
     Alexander died before 1 April 1300.

     Margaret de Bonkyll married Sir John Stewart (of Bonkyll), son of Alexander Stewart 4th High Steward and Jeano or Joan Macrory. Although Sir John Stewart who married Margaret de Bonkil is customarily called "of Bonkil," it appears that he never owned that property, since his father-in-law, Alexander de Bonkil, survived him. Margaret de Bonkyll was the daughter of Sir Alexander de Bonkyll. Margaret de Bonkyll was born in Scotland. She was heir of her father.
     Margaret died circa September 1304.

     Katherine Bonythan married Thomas Godolphin, son of Sir William Godolphin and Margaret Glynn. Katherine Bonythan was the daughter of Edward Bonython.

     Alice or Catherine Bonython was the daughter of Alice Killigrew and Richard Bonython.
     Alice or Catherine Bonython married John Rashleigh circa 1578. Her uncle Henry bought the wardship of Rashleigh from the Queen although he was almost 21 and maried him to his niece.

     Richard Bonython was born in Carclew, Cornwall, England.
     Richard Bonython married Alice Killigrew, daughter of Capt John Killigrew and Elizabeth Trewinnard.
