- "Reginald, according to the Irish historians, seems to have been popular both in Scotland and in Ireland, and to have been a man of peace. In or about the year 1180 he granted a charter to the monastery of Paisley, giving eight cows and two pennies for one year, and one penny in perpetuity from every house on his territories from which smoke issued. In this charter he is styled Lord of the Isles, which is the first reference in any authentic document to this title as assumed by the family. He is also styled King of the Isles and Lord of Argyll and Kintyre. His arms are thus described: 'In the middle of the seal on one side a ship filled with men-at-arms; on the reverse side, the figure of an armed man on horseback with a drawn sword in his hand.' Reginald, on completing the Abbey of Saddel, granted to the monks the lands of Gleusagadul and the twelve-mark lands of Balebean, in the lordship of Kintyre, and Cesken in Arran, and unuin denarium ex qualihet domo. He died in 1207, having, it is said, married Fonia, daughter of the Earl of Moray, and granddaughter of Fergus, Prince of Galloway. The authority for this is not clear, and he is also said to have married Macrandel's daughter, or, as some say, a sister of Thomas Randel, Earl of Moray. This last is inadmissible, but Reginald may have married a daughter of Ranulph, son of Dungall, an ancestor of the famous Earl." [The Scots Peerage, citation details below]
